Anti-social behaviour is unreasonable behaviour which disturbs or causes a nuisance to an individual or a local community.

We advise before you report anti-social behaviour (ASB) to us you should first try speaking to your neighbour or the premises causing the nuisance, but only if you’re comfortable doing so.

Dial 999 in an emergency if you think there is an immediate threat to life or property.

Dial 101 or report to the police online if the matter has already taken place and it is not an emergency.

Find out how to report anti-social behaviour.
