Anti Social Behaviour

Anti-social behaviour can be defined as behaviour causing, or likely to cause a nuisance or annoyance to a person living or visiting in the locality. Some examples of Anti Social Behaviour are:

• Intimidation and threatening language
• Criminal damage/vandalism
• Noise nuisance
• Harassment, including racism and homophobia
• Litter
• Writing graffiti
• Rowdy young people in groups
• Uncontrolled pets and animals
• Substance misuse
• Unkempt gardens/properties
• Riding motorcycles on footpaths
• Abandoned vehicles

Anti-social behaviour can have a significant impact on the quality of life of community members, and can result in more serious crimes arising due to the neglected ‘look’ and ‘feel’ of a community.

Blaby District Council has a Community Safety Team that can offer Help, Support and Advice on all aspects of Anti Social Behaviour. In 2004 alone the Community Safety Team (CST) successfully resolved 95% of all reports of Anti Social Behaviour. To find out more about the Community Safety Team please follow the link below.
