You have told us that Anti-Social behaviour causes you concern. This can be things like excessive noise, parties, smoking drugs and more. We will be working with partners to ensure we can tackle these issues and prevent them occurring again.

Action

The local neighbourhood team conduct regular patrols in highlighted problem areas.
We record all ASB on our shared system with Harborough District Council and together we will do what we can to reduce problems and provide you with the satisfaction.
We continue to encourage you to report concerns and locations to us, we need this information to conduct more targeted patrols.
When dealing with those involved we look to use the incremental approach, this will include taking details, contacting parents (if children) then looking to give warnings, acceptable behaviour contracts and then onto prosecution or use of ASB powers.

Issue

MOTOR VEHICLE CRIME

A number of local enforcements have been conducted over the past couple of months resulting in successful convictions for motor vehicle related offences.
