Anti-social behaviour and hate crime

We are committed to ensuring you enjoy your right to peace, quiet and security in your home.

We recognise anti-social behaviour (ASB) can affect the lives of individuals and, in some cases, can disrupt a community. It is, therefore, our intention to provide an effective and efficient service to resolve problems quickly and, where appropriate, take enforcement action against perpetrators.
