Anti-social behaviour

How we can tackle nuisance behaviour

While Kent is a safe county with low levels of serious crime, nuisance behaviour continues to disrupt the lives of far too many residents.

At Kent Police we take this very seriously indeed, which is why we are introducing more neighbourhood officers to work with residents and local organisations to find real solutions to anti-social behaviour and other local problems.

In neighbourhoods across the county, people are already seeing the change.

• Our anti-social behaviour leaflet explains what anti-social behaviour is, how we can deal with it and what you can do to help improve your local community.
• We are also using all the powers available to us to address the causes of the problems, act to prevent them and, where necessary, take action against those responsible.
• Officers are visiting schools with the 'Is it worth it?' roadshow to bring home the consequences of anti-social behaviour to young people.
