Together ensuring the safer management and use of controlled drugs in the community
YOUR NEAREST CDLO
Here at The Association of Police Controlled Drug Liaison Officers we understand that sometimes you need to contact your local CDLO or CDAO direct.
Below you will find email addresses of all the CDLO's across the United Kingdom, however, if you prefer, or if you get no response from your CDLO, feel free to visit our enquiries page to contact the association committee, and we'll see if we can help.
CONTACT YOUR NEAREST CDLO or CDAO BELOW
Please Note - If a CDLO is not listed for your area, or you do not receive a reply to your email within a decent time frame, your regional Controlled Drugs Accountable Officer (CDAO) may be able to assist or advise.
Find their details at the end of the CDLO list below.
