Police in Malvern have been visiting drug hotspots and 'cuckoo' addresses.

Officers from Pickersleigh and Chase Safer Neighbourhood Police Team have been carrying out targeted patrols on foot and bicycle of drugs hot spots.

They have also visited cuckoo addresses.

A cuckoo address is where vulnerable people live, often alone, and there is potential for the address to be taken over by drug dealers.

Police say it has a "massive negative impact" on the person's life.

"We work hard to stop this type of activity happening in our community and will continue to do so," said PCSO Kevin Tudge.

Anyone who has any information about this type of activity is urged to inform the police by calling 101.

Alternatively, information can be reported anonymously to Crime Stoppers on 0800 555 111.
