Cropton Park drink and drugs

John Fareham and John Abbott are making progress with issues relating to substance abuse and excessive drinking on Cropton Park.

We have been receiving reports from concerned local residents to the effect that needles and other evidence of drug abuse have been found on site and that a certain motor vehicle has been the focus of activity where this and excessive drinking on site are concerned.  We have therefore referred the matter to the Council’s anti-social behaviour team who have in turn drawn the matter to the attention of the Police. It goes without saying that any further information we receive on such matters will also be passed on – needles are sharp and therefore potentially dangerous to small children playing there, regardless of what they have previously been used for.
