How to report antisocial behaviour

What is Antisocial Behaviour?

Antisocial behaviour is conduct that causes harassment, alarm, or distress to others. It can have a significant impact on the quality of life of residents and local communities.

Examples of antisocial behaviour include:

Not every disagreement between neighbours is antisocial behaviour, but persistent behaviour that negatively affects others may require reporting.

Why Report Antisocial Behaviour?

Reporting incidents helps North Yorkshire Police, the City of York Council, housing providers, and partner agencies build a picture of what is happening in the area. Even if action cannot be taken immediately, reports help identify patterns, allocate resources, and support victims.

If you are experiencing or witnessing ASB, please report it. Your information could help prevent further problems in the community.
