Worried for neighbours welfare!

Hey everyone.

First post, but looking for some advice as unsure what to do.

I havent seen my neighbour and her kids for between 2-3weeks. One of the kids is probably 7/8 and the other is a baby, probably 7months or so. Summer holidays is over so would be a strange time to go away??? Surely?
Eldest has possibly been missing school?? We havent heard a peep from anybody. Its not like my neighbour and Im not sure wether to be concerned or not? They are not quiet people.

I have my suspicions that her partner is a drug dealer, he isnt on the tenancy, unemployed, drives a flash car, is out all hours of the night for short trips. This goes on constantly.

They fight like mad, it gets very hostile, police called on a few occasions.

So tonight I came home to find about 6maggots sporadically crawling by my front door and in the living room (flat). Two in the communal hallway. No flies have been in my flat, its clean, no food. Im finding it hard to understand where they may have come from??

The partners car hasnt been at the property either all this time.

Do I need to request a welfare check, or contact social services??

Should I wait a few more days in case they have gone away?

Jesus Christ, call the police!

I've voted you are being unreasonable because I'd definitely be requesting a welfare check from police/social services. I wouldn't be speculating about partner being a drug dealer though unless you have evidence

are there any unusual smells?
