Anti-social behaviour Anti-social behaviour (ASB) is anything which causes harassment, alarm or distress. It can take many forms and there are a number of ways we can put a stop to it.
Tips for dealing with ASB Gather evidence - CCTV is a great way to identify offenders. If this isn't available a description of offenders and direction of travel will be helpful. Discuss issues with your neighbours, colleagues, friends, family and other residents in the community. Don't chase or engage with the perpetrators - this makes it a game for them and they will keep coming back if they find it fun. Don't shout at the individuals -shouting will encourage the behaviour, try not to engage with them. Don't react to the behaviour - if you give a reaction they are more likely to return and continue the behaviour.
Reporting ASB When reporting ASB, it is useful if you can provide as many details as possible. This will help decide the most suitable and proportionate action to deal with your case. Report as much information as possible about the incident (location, time, description of those involved, if this has happened before).
