Reporting Anti-Social Behaviour (ASB)
What is anti-social behaviour?
Antisocial behaviour is defined as 'behaviour by a person which causes, or is likely to cause, harassment, alarm or distress to persons not of the same household as the person' (Antisocial Behaviour Act 2003 and Police Reform and Social Responsibility Act 2011).
How to report anti-social behaviour?
Recording incidents is very important. Events can easily become confused, so recording what happened, who was involved, when, where and how you were affected really helps to show the impact of the problem.
Worried about reporting
Some residents are worried about making a complaint or reporting an incident for fear of reprisal from those involved. When you report an incident we offer support and keep your details strictly confidential. You can also report ASB anonymously. Your identity will only be released with your explicit consent and only when required for legal proceedings in court.
Depending on the nature of the incident Antisocial behaviour should be reported to the police or to the Carey Gardens estate office.
If you would like to report antisocial behaviour anonymously, call Crimestoppers at 0800 555 111.
