Current priorities
Concerns raised regarding increased Anti-Social Behaviour in the park, around the bowling and bandstand areas.
Funding was secured to tackle such issues with near 100 hours additional foot patrol inclusive of the park and town centre. Meanwhile, we have been working with partners to improve CCTV coverage and make these open spaces safer for all.
