Types of anti-social behaviour
In England and Wales, the Anti-social Behaviour, Crime and Policing Act 2014 defines anti-social behaviour as:
(a) conduct that has caused, or is likely to cause, harassment, alarm or distress to any person; (b) conduct capable of causing nuisance or annoyance to a person in relation to that person’s occupation of residential premises; or (c) conduct capable of causing housing-related nuisance or annoyance to any person.
It applies to people living or working in the local area, including people who own or rent their homes and our staff.
Examples of anti-social behaviour include:

- Violence against people and property.
- Causing nuisance or harassment against another person or group of persons based on race, disability, gender, age, religion, sexual orientation or any other factor.
- Using or selling drugs such as Cannabis or other illegal substance.
- Loud noise, especially late at night.
- Allowing pets to make too much noise, or to be a danger to others.
- Vandalising property, including graffiti.
- Nuisance from vehicles.
- Domestic violence.
- Being intolerant of other people’s lifestyles.
Report anti-social behaviour
We work with residents and local communities to provide a secure, clean and safe environment for people to live in.
We take reports of anti-social behaviour (ASB) seriously and will work with you and others to resolve problems and prevent them happening again. In some cases we may take legal action.
Before reporting anti-social behaviour
If you feel able to, and where the situation is not too serious, you should approach the other people involved to discuss the issue.
