Do you know where your child is and what company they are keeping?

We have had a slight increase in calls in the last week or so regarding youths/ youngsters hanging around in large groups in Lichfield City Centre and causing a nuisance and some upset to residents, shoppers and visitors to the area. This is of course classed as anti-social behaviour.

The simplest way that parents/ guardians can help to prevent this, is by asking where their children are, what they are up to and what company they are keeping.

We of course do not want youngsters not to be able to enjoy themselves whilst visiting the city centre, but it must not be at the detriment of others enjoyment, and we certainly do not want to have to be knocking on the doors of parents and guardians regarding the behaviour of their child.

Kind regards,
