"West Midlands Police is for the first time using money recovered through the Proceeds of Crime Act to help local school children discover a healthy high.
Money recovered through POCA – following successful drugs operations – is being used to pay for singer songwriter David Graham, a former 'Pop Idol' contestant, to deliver his award-winning 'Natural High' anti-drugs show to Year-Seven pupils at nine schools across the Solihull area this week (26 - 30 March). In addition, officers from local neighbourhood policing teams will conduct drugs awareness sessions."
