Once a month, take the drawer out and give it a good scrub and clean inside the drawer cavity - I use a bottle brush.
Use a plastic tooth pick (or similar) to clean the jets at the top of the cavity too.
Now use a cheap biological powder (no conditioner) to run the machine empty on the hottest cycle. The bleach in the powder will give the machine a good clean and kill the bacteria that causes the mould.
All washing machine manufacturers recommend this routine care nowadays.
