What is anti-social behaviour?

Anti-social behaviour is virtually any intimidating or threatening activity that scares you or damages your quality of life.

Examples include:

rowdy, noisy behaviour
'yobbish' behaviour
vandalism, graffiti and fly-posting
dealing or buying drugs on the street
fly-tipping rubbish
aggressive begging
street drinking
setting off fireworks late at night
Anti-social behaviour doesn't just make life unpleasant. It holds back the regeneration of disadvantaged areas and creates an environment where more serious crime can take hold.

How we can help.

We at ISS formed a task force group to help Local Authority’s combat this increase, and we carried out a Pilot Programme with West Dunbartonshire Council and Strathclyde Police in November 2006 for a month. In this programme we worked with emergency services and the council, while we would patrol a problem area on foot and check for vandalism, faults, and criminal acts (arson, fights etc) acts of loud music or problem neighbours. We would submit evening reports to the council so they could act on them the next working day, our shifts times varied from day to day to help us be at problem areas when we or the council felt extra attention was needed.

We have sinced reviewed our training and equipment. We have retrained our staff to raise awareness of Safer community and protocols in relation to Anti Social Behaviour. This helps our staff stay one stepp ahead and offer a better form service and help keep our staff safe. We have weekly meetings with our staff (tool talks) and regular training programmes so we can keep offering the best solutions and services. Our staff now have access to body armour, body cameras & night vision etc to aid us in our duties.
