Anti-Social Behaviour

 

Hello, 

 

South Wales Police are working to tackle anti-social behaviour in Maesteg Town Centre. Following reports of youths causing anti-social behaviour in and around the Town centre. We have been conducting regular patrols in the town centre and viewing CCTV in hopes to identify the youths responsible and issue anti-social behaviour referrals accordingly.

 

Anti-social behaviour covers a wide range of unacceptable activity that causes harm to an individual, to their community or to their environment. This could be an action by someone else that leaves you feeling alarmed, harassed, or distressed. It also includes fear of crime or concern for public safety, public disorder, or public nuisance.

 

Examples of anti-social behaviour include:

 

  • Nuisance, rowdy or inconsiderate neighbours
  • Vandalism, graffiti, and flyposting
  • Street drinking
  • Environmental damage including littering, dumping of rubbish and abandonment of cars
  • Prostitution related activity
  • Fireworks misuse
  • Inconsiderate or inappropriate use of vehicles
  • The police, local authorities, and other community safety partner agencies, such as Fire & Rescue and social housing landlords, all have a responsibility to deal with anti-social behaviour and to help people who are suffering from it.
