Current priorities

Anti-social behaviour

Your neighbourhood officers are committed to tackling anti-social behaviour (ASB) through engagement, collaborative working and problem solving. Everybody has the right to feel safe in their community, and we’ll take robust action against those acting disorderly and those who have an adverse impact on the wellbeing of our towns. The team will proactively patrol hotspot areas, providing a visible deterrent with partners.
