Please review the following update regarding Anti Social Behaviour which some members around this area have highlighted as an issue of concern on the Met Engage priority survey.
Community-level prevention
Environmental improvements: Local authorities can improve public spaces through landscaping, better lighting, and security measures to deter unwanted activity.
Youth programs: Invest in positive activities for young people, such as sports and other clubs, to provide healthy alternatives and teach valuable skills like teamwork and discipline.
Positive role models: Highlight individuals and organizations that exemplify pro-social behavior to inspire others and diminish the appeal of anti-social actions.
Public awareness: Launch campaigns to raise awareness about the impact of anti-social behavior and what residents can do to help.
Official intervention
Reporting: Report incidents to the police, your local authority, or your landlord. For urgent situations, call 999; for non-emergencies, call 101.
Fines and orders: Police and local authorities can issue on-the-spot fines for offenses like littering and graffiti. They can also apply for court orders, such as Criminal Behaviour Orders, Dispersal Orders, or Closure Orders, to address more persistent issues.
Early intervention: Provide early support and intervention for at-risk individuals, particularly young people, through 1-on-1 support.
Legal action: Landlords can take legal steps like going to court to evict tenants or end tenancies for anti-social behavior.
Personal and community-based actions
Report the behavior: If you witness anti-social behavior, report it to the appropriate authorities.
Report anonymously: If you are hesitant to provide your personal details, you can report certain crimes anonymously to organizations like Crimestoppers.
Get involved: Participate in local community groups or initiatives that aim to reduce anti-social behavior.
Request a case review: If you are a victim of persistent anti-social behavior, you may be able to use the Case Review mechanism to request that public bodies review the case and consider further action.
 Antisocial behaviour can come in many forms and can require support from more organisations than just the police.
