BROMSGROVE COMMUNITY SAFETY
PARTNERSHIP
Taking Action
Against Anti Social Behaviour
Anti-social behaviour (ASB) can be a real problem for
some communities and Bromsgrove Community
Safety Partnership is committed to tackling
ASB
and helping the
residents of Bromsgrove to feel safe.
What Can We Do?
Tackling
ASB
effectively requires many local
agencies to work together and Bromsgrove Community Safety
Partnership enables Council Departments, Police, Housing
Associations, Youth Offending Teams (YOTs), the Fire Service and other
organisations to work effectively to reduce and prevent
ASB
.
When Anti-Social Behaviour happens, Bromsgrove
Community Safety Partnership organisations can help. We can use a
range of tools and powers to tackle
ASB
and will take enforcement powers
to stop it. This is why, when we receive complaints of
ASB
, we ask people to record what
they see, when they see it, who they see and where they see it.
This information is vital. By taking a stand against ASB, together
we can stop it.
In addition to responding to complaints of
ASB
, our Partnership
organisations also spend a lot of time out in the community. This
allows us to identify emerging problems, understand our
communities’ needs and provide re-assurance that issues are being
dealt with.
We all want our neighbourhoods to be free from
ASB
and when
ASB
happens, we all want
it dealt with so that people can feel safe.
What Can You Do?
We can only take action against
ASB
if we're aware it is happening.
If you do experience
ASB
it is important you report it; don't rely on someone else. We would
rather have 10 people call us about the same incident than no calls
at all. We can only take action when issues are reported.
If you are experiencing
ASB
it is important you report it
and when you do, there are Minimum Standards you can expect from our
organisations when dealing with your issues.
