Guide to Antisocial Behaviour

What we do about antisocial behaviour

Here are some of the things that are antisocial behaviour:

  • Being aggressive or threatening (shouting, swearing or physically hurting someone)
  • Being really noisy a lot of the time, especially late at night
  • Causing trouble in a group (like big groups of young people being loud or causing problems)
  • Hate crime  (when someone is is unkind or hurtful because of another person’s race, religion, gender, disability or other differences)
  • Serious arguments with neighbours that make people feel unsafe
  • Damage to property  (like smashing windows/kicking doors)
  • Misusing drugs or alcohol

We know these things can be frustrating, but they’re not something we deal with as antisocial behaviour.

  • Arguments about parking
  • Children playing outside
  • Talking loudly
  • Dogs barking sometimes
  • Walking up and down stairs
  • Using washing machines or other household items
  • Closing or slamming doors
  • Falling out online or on social media
  • Everyday noises from people living their daily lives
