You said there was an issue with Anti Social Behaviour including drug misuse and criminal damage in and around the dugouts on hood park in Ashby.

We want to reduce instances of ASB involving drug related activity and criminal damage in this area
and support local residents who have voiced their concerns over incidents of such activity.

We will work with partner agencies to see what environmental factors could help reduce this issue. CCTV, lighting, signage options will be explored.

We will target our patrols in this area and take action against anyone found to be in possession of drugs or causing damage.

We will also look to divert people from socialising in this area and redirect them to alternative more appropriate activities.

So far we have been spending a lot of time patrolling the area and on most occasions there have been no issues to report.

We have had one report of youths smashing a glass bottle and smoking cannabis in the dugout. Our local neighbourhood team have identified the two people responsible and have dealt with them for these offences.

We have recently been working with North West Leicestershire District council to have some offensive and unsightly graffiti removed from Hood Park.

We will keep you updated on this priority.
