Another Cannabis Cultivation

Another one bites the dust 🌱

Local beat officers, working closely with residents, have identified yet another cannabis cultivation at a property in Singleton, Ashford. Yes… another one. While it can feel like they appear as quickly as we can deal with them, local officers remain determined to dent organised crime and disrupt drug supply across Ashford.

Tackling drugs is a key priority for Kent Police. Drug production and supply are closely linked to wider criminality, exploitation, and harm within our communities. That’s why officers remain persistent and proactive—taking opportunities to shut down grows like this, disrupt criminal networks, and protect vulnerable people who are often drawn into this type of activity.

Successes like this are very often down to information from the public. Residents know their neighbourhoods best, and your information helps officers focus on the right places at the right time.
