Individuals and communities living with the destructive affects of drug dealing in Waterford were urged this week to avail of a new service, ‘Dial to Stop drug dealing’ on 1800 220 220.

 The new hotline offers safety in numbers to people who may be afraid to pass on information for fear of reprisals.

Dial to Stop drug dealing is a safe, confidential and completely anonymous phone line for Waterford people to pass on information on drug dealing. Callers are never asked for their name, address or any other information which might identify them.

The person answering their call will not know them and will not recognise their voice. The phone number is not operated by An Garda Síochána. However, information gathered is passed on directly to the Gardaí to feed into ongoing inquiries.
