The thought of a heroin dealer going anywhere near your children, let alone teaching them how to do things, is a frightening one. But with the recent sentencing of a 29-year-old Notting Hill classroom assistant, the question isn’t if herion dealers are interacting with your kids, but how often.

Shawn Alloway, 29, of Lancaster Road, Notting Hill, appeared at Isleworth Crown Court on March 11 where he denied possession with intent to supply Class A drugs, but was convicted and was subsequently jailed.

A second man, Hugh Green, 59, also of Lancaster Road, was also convicted of possession of a Class A drug after denying the charge, and was fined £100.

On September 20 last year, plain clothes police officers were patrolling in McGregor Road, Notting Hill, when they spotted Alloway handing over six wraps of heroin to Green.
