Current priorities
Youth related Anti-social behaviour in Spittal Park, Castle Donington.
You said - There was an issue with Youth related Anti-social behaviour in Spittal Park, Castle Donington which has got worse since the new skate park was installed. We want the local community to enjoy the park and the new facilities provided and don't want the minority to spoil it for everyone else. We will work with the Parish council to investigate any ASB or offending at the location and take appropriate action against those responsible.

Anti-social behaviour in the Wheatcroft Lane area, Castle Donington.
You Said: There has been all kinds of anti social behaviour being committed in and around Wheatcroft Lane, Castle Donington. Most of the activity has been linked to residents living at that location. We will work with residents and housing associations to identify those responsible and take appropriate action to alleviate the issues. If you live in this area and are being effected by these issues then please contact a member of the beat team to discuss how we can work with you.

Vehicle related anti-social behaviour on Diseworth Road, Castle Donington

Other associated activity involves people sitting up in their cars, revving their engines causing them to backfire, playing loud music, beeping their horns etc. There have also been issues related to drug use and drinking. This is a previous priority that we have never stopped working on however we are now working closely with the community and partner agencies to find an appropriate physical change solution at the location to deter the described activity.
