Tackling anti-social behaviour

If the problem isn’t too serious, you could have a friendly word with the person causing the problem, explain what’s troubling you and ask if they can change or stop what they’re doing.

If you’re worried or afraid of approaching the person or the problem continues, get in touch with us using the contacts below or complete the form on this page.

You should contact the police to report incidents of criminal behaviour such as damage to property, assault, violence, threats of violence, burglary, drug dealing etc. Call the non-emergency police number on 101 or 999 for emergencies or report to Crimestoppers.
