Reporting anti-social behaviour
Are you or is someone you know a victim of anti-social behaviour? This page explains how you should go about tackling the problem and what will be done to deal with the behaviour.
Types of ASB
Most types of anti-social behaviour fit into one of three categories: street problems, nuisance neighbours or environmental crime.
These categories cover a broad range of conduct ranging from groups of youths behaving aggressively in shopping precincts, to neighbours who don't clean up after their dogs, to the misuse of fireworks.
Anti-social behaviour impacts on individuals, families and communities: it prevents a peaceful community life and degrades the environment.
But you don't have to tolerate it. This section explains what we're doing to combat the different types of anti-social behaviour and how you can get something done about it in your area.
Tell someone about your concerns
Speak to your local anti-social behaviour coordinator or Crime and Disorder Reduction Partnership (CDRP) representative about what's happening in your area. They can both provide support and advice, and help you tackle the problem.
All complaints are treated as confidential under the Data Protection Act so you don't have to worry about your identity being revealed.
Finding your local anti-social behaviour co-ordinator
If you are a member of the public and are experiencing a problem with anti-social behaviour, the anti-social behaviour co-ordinator in your area will be able to assist. Contact details for all Local Authorities can be found on the Together link above.
