Antisocial behaviour

we continue to work with partners and education establishments to reduce the effects of harm from those who cause anti social behaviour within our communities. We will proactively target locations and offenders to protect those within our community from becoming victims of crime. We will utilise our criminal powers to address these issues but also through our partners and civil legislation with Community Protection Orders (CBO’s), Criminal Behaviour Orders (CBO’s) and tenancy enforcement to name but a few.

Drugs

We will always respond and deal with the issues of drug use and supply within our communities to make the area and town as safe as we can for our communities and the younger generation. We will target those who exploit the most vulnerable within the community and bring them to justice and provide wrap around care to those who become victims of any exploitation. This includes counterfeit goods such a cigarettes and vapes that are being sold which can be harmful to the health and wellbeing of those exposed or using such products.

Retail Crime

This is a constant issue where we have worked with many stores across the town and area managers to reduce the loss suffered by those who are being targeted. We have done this through Problem Solving Plans and identified action plans for everyone to work to, in the vast majority of cases we see a significant positive impact upon this work. Criminal Behaviour Orders (CBO’s) are always sought on those who offer or use violence in the commission of their crimes.
