Anti-social behaviour (ASB) can cause real distress and we take it seriously. If something’s affecting your peace of mind, we’re here to help. 

What is anti-social behaviour? 

It covers a wide range of behaviours that cause alarm, harassment or distress. Examples include: 

  • Loud music or noise from neighbours 
  • Vandalism
  • Youth nuisance 
  • Throwing objects 
  • Gang-related nuisance 
  • Threats of violence 
  • Hate or mate crime 
  • Drug dealing or cultivation 
  • Harassment or verbal abuse 

What isn’t anti-social behaviour? 

Some everyday activities aren’t classed as anti-social behaviour, such as: 

  • General household noise 
  • Babies crying 
  • Cooking smells 
  • Children playing (unless it involves abuse, damage or serious behaviour)

What you can do 

If the issue isn’t serious, you could try having a friendly word with the person involved. Let them know how it’s affecting you and ask if they can make a change. 

If you’re worried, feel unsafe or the problem continues, get in touch with us. You can also report criminal behaviour (like violence, threats, property damage or drug dealing) to the police. 

Call 101 for non-emergencies or 999 in an emergency.
