Antisocial Behaviour Team<br />

Antisocial behaviour can cover many things and can<br />

mean different things to different people. Sometimes<br />

it can be a serious and criminal act, such as drug<br />

dealing racial harassment or physical violence.<br />

However, it can also include loud music, barking<br />

dogs, litter, verbal abuse and vandalism, which could<br />

affect your quality <strong>of</strong> life. In general, antisocial<br />

behaviour takes place when the behaviour <strong>of</strong> one<br />

individual, a group <strong>of</strong> people or a family, seriously<br />

affects the quality <strong>of</strong> life <strong>of</strong> others. This team knows<br />

that this type <strong>of</strong> behaviour is committed by a few<br />

people but that it can affect the lives <strong>of</strong> many, and<br />

because <strong>of</strong> this take it very seriously and have a<br />

range <strong>of</strong> options available to tackle it successfully.<br />
