Antisocial Behaviour Week To Tackle Nuisance Issues in East Riding

Monday, 18 November 2024 06:00

East Riding of Yorkshire Council’s antisocial behaviour team has organised a series of events to mark antisocial behaviour awareness week.

The week, running until Sunday, aims to highlight the negative effects of ASB and the ways in which the council is tackling the issue.

There will be a street surgery, with council officers going door to door to hear residents’ concerns in Bridlington on Monday. Additionally, there will be a street stall for residents to report concerns, at the promenade shopping centre, on Wednesday.

There will also be drop-in sessions at libraries for residents to attend and voice their concerns. They will be held from 10am-12 noon on Monday at Withernsea library, and 10am-12 noon on Wednesday in Beverley library. On Tuesday, Driffield library will host a session from 10-11.30am, and Bridlington library from 2.00-3.30pm.

To mark the week, council officers will be engaging with schoolchildren in Hessle, Anlaby and Goole, as well as neighbourhood watch groups and voluntary groups in Bridlington and Pocklington.

Councillor Lyn Healing, cabinet member for communities and public protection said:

"Addressing antisocial behaviour as it happens is so important for the wellbeing of our communities, I encourage everyone to share their thoughts during the week's events, and to report any issues they see on the East Riding website. Together, we can help keep East Riding safe and welcoming for all."
