The Issue

Living in Tewkesbury, Gloucestershire, I've witnessed a troubling environment develop on our street. Families and elderly residents find their peace disrupted by continuous police raids and suspicious activities linked to a known drug house in the GL20 5DF postcode. This unsettling atmosphere not only compromises our community's safety but also poses a worrying influence on our children.

In recent years, I've witnessed firsthand the negative impact this household has on our neighborhood, particularly on its younger residents. One child, Leo, who is just fourteen years old, has already expressed aspirations of becoming a drug dealer—a heartbreaking statement when you consider his tender age. This ambition seems to be nurtured by a household that allows him to smoke cannabis, citing ADHD as an excuse. Such permissiveness is not only unlawful but endangers Leo's future and well-being.

This situation has rattled our older residents too, many of whom have lived here peacefully for decades only to now find themselves overshadowed by illicit activities and raids that disturb their tranquility. The issue is not just a personal concern but a communal one, affecting the quality of life for all of us who reside here.

It's crucial that Gloucestershire Police take decisive steps to restore peace and safety by seeking a Closure Order on this drug house. A Closure Order would not only prevent ongoing illegal activities but also send a strong message against tolerating drug-related behaviors in our community. By removing this negative influence, we can begin to reconstruct a safe and nurturing environment for the current and future generations.

We urge the authorities to consider the broad impact of this drug house on our community and act swiftly for the sake of our children's futures and the harmony of our neighborhood. Please join us in advocating for immediate action—together, we can hold those in power accountable and drive real change. Sign this petition to help reclaim our neighborhood from the grips of crime and distress.
