Report anti social behaviour
Anti-social behaviour can seriously affect the
quality of life for both the individual and the community in which
they live and should not be tolerated.
In the first instance where possible you
should always try to speak to the other party or where this may not
be possible write a letter as they may be unaware of the impact of
their behaviour.
However this may not always be a practical
step to take and the next step will always be to report the
behaviour to the relevant agency, as anti-social behaviour can take
many forms from noise pollution to harassment or criminal damage
the agency with the statutory powers to tackle the issue will
depend upon the type of complaint received.
