Police Reports Rising Antisocial Behaviour Across Cotswolds, Leicester, Evesham

There has been a noticeable increase in reports of antisocial behaviour across various regions in the UK, prompting local authorities to take action. In the Cotswolds, police are encouraging residents to report any incidents, while increasing patrols to deter further issues. Similarly, Leicester City Council has initiated a public space protection order (PSPO) aimed at tackling problems like begging and street-drinking, with fines for violations potentially reaching £1,000. This PSPO, supported by local residents, reflects a strong demand for a zero-tolerance approach to improve the city centre's atmosphere. Additionally, a community safety strategy in North Lanarkshire aims to address antisocial behaviour alongside other crime-related issues, emphasizing collaboration between public services. In Evesham, recent police intervention with local youth has led to a significant reduction in antisocial behaviour reports, demonstrating the potential effectiveness of proactive community engagement.
