What is asb?

ASB stands for Anti-Social Behavior, and refers to actions or behaviours that cause harm, distress, or alarm to individuals or communities. ASB can range from minor incidents such as noise disturbances or graffiti to more serious offenses like vandalism, harassment, or violence.

ASB can have a significant impact on the well-being and quality of life of those affected, and can lead to feelings of fear, anxiety, and insecurity. It can also damage relationships between individuals, communities, and public services.

Various strategies can be employed to address and prevent ASB, including community engagement, early intervention, enforcement action, and support services for those at risk of engaging in ASB.

Many local authorities and organizations have dedicated ASB teams or services to tackle and respond to reports of ASB in their area. Reporting ASB to the appropriate authorities is an important step in addressing the issue and ensuring the safety and security of individuals and communities.
