Anti Social Behaviour

• A clear understanding of what anti-social behaviour is and why it is important to tackle it at the earliest possible stage;
• A strategy that emphasises the importance of intervention to dissuade the perpetrators and to deter others;
• Measures to promote dispute resolution and build up understanding, such as the use of independent mediation;
• Providing those complaining of anti-social behaviour with support and regular feedback on measures taken and on outcomes;
• Close inter-agency working to share information and where necessary, the delivery of enforcement sanctions;
• The promotion and encouragement of responsible and neighbourly behaviour;
• Supporting the activities of residents groups, individuals and other agencies working to improve community cohesion.

We have produced a form that can be used to report any incidents of anti-social behaviour. Please click here to open a copy.

The completed form should be sent to the local Community Compliance Officer, either in the post, or by e-mail.  Click here for details of our Community Compliance Officer's 'patches', and for their postal and e-mail addresses.

We will contact you within five working days, but if you need emergency support, please contact the police on 999.

We have  produced a Statement of our policies and procedures for dealing with anti-social behaviour.    This statement is summarised in our brochure "Anti-Social Behaviour - A survival guide".
