Noisy neighbours, vandals and those guilty of dog fouling are just a few of those who will be targeted by the borough’s first Antisocial Behaviour Awareness week.

Run by Surrey Police, the awareness week will help people in Elmbridge identify organisations to contact when faced with antisocial behaviour.

Superintendent Chris Moon, of Surrey Police, said: “If antisocial behaviour is not dealt with quickly and appropriately, it can have a significant impact on the day-to-day life of individuals, families and communities.

“However, we know that residents are sometimes unsure what is and isn’t antisocial behaviour, what self-help options – such as mediation – are available and who problems should be reported to.”

Surrey County Council has also launched a new one-stop-shop antisocial behaviour website in collaboration with partners.

Antisocial Behaviour Awareness Week will begin today (Monday, September 28).
