Anti-social behaviour

When you report anti-social behaviour, you will speak to different organisations depending on what you have experienced.

This may be:

• the police
• our anti-social behaviour officer
• a registered social landlord (housing association)

This page shows who you should contact and when.

You should also make a report if have already tried speaking to your neighbours or using mediation, but it has not worked.

You can also use community trigger if you have experienced anti-social behaviour many times.

Select the heading that describes what you want to do:

If you have experienced anti-social behaviour time and time again, but you feel as if nobody is listening to you, you can use community trigger to ask us to review your case.

To request a review of your case, contact us on [email protected].

To use community trigger, you must have:

• made 3 reports of anti-social behaviour within the past 6 months
• always made your reports within 1 month of the incident happening

Any organisations involved will look at your community trigger, and decide if further action can be taken to stop the anti-social behaviour you have experienced.

The community trigger is not used to:

• send us a complaint on how an organisation has dealt with your case (for complaints you should contact the relevant organisation about their complaints procedure)
• report new cases of anti-social behaviour

You can read more about the community trigger process and what is involved.

You can also find out what to do if you want to appeal a community trigger decision.
