Anti social behaviour warnings issued

Dear Residents of Southall Broadway,

We really appreciate your feedback on the concerns you have raised with us regarding Anti social behaviour in your neighbourhood because of your feedback we have managed to collate the data we have received from you to target the problematic areas in the community and in doing so we have issued a total of nine ASB warnings, multiple stop and searches and arrests. Avenue Road, St Josephs Drive, South Road and Orchard Avenue are where we have issued the most ASB warnings thus far and we will continue monitoring these areas. So please do keep reporting to us as every report counts towards us building a bigger picture of where we can focus our efforts in trying to make Southall safer for everyone.

By issuing ASB warnings it is part of an early intervention scheme which is an innovative way of managing ASB at the earliest opportunity, alongside partners using interventions and diversions with the benefit of potentially preventing future criminal behaviour. using practices and powers from the Anti-Social Behaviour Act 2014.

ASB early intervention scheme is a simple stepped approach to dealing with people coming to police notice through their ASB. It highlights the full range of powers and legislation with an aim to prevent repeat offending. The ultimate aim is to minimise the impact of ASB on communities and victims and reduce the demand on police.

It is a simple method of responding to offending behaviour, increasing intelligence, highlighting safeguarding issues and providing diversion opportunities prior to any enforcement at the earliest opportunity.

Kind Regards,

Southall Broadway Safer Neighbourhoods Team
