2 - ASB Area of Churchill Gardens

Drug and alcohol related ASB , has long been an issue for local residents, and we now consider this to be a SNT priority. We will increase high visibility patrols and coverts operations in the area to deter unruly groups from congregating.

Current Police powers like Section 27 Dispersals and Behavioural Contracts, leading to ASBO's will be used on main offenders. Properties linked to drug use will be targeted with warrants and, if evidence exists, properties shut down under crackhouse legislation. We will also look to continue and promote our close working relationship with Youth services in the area, including the setting up of a youth club.

3 - Protection of vulnerable victims

Police are committed to protecting victims and the SNT officers work will be focused on putting Victims First.

Officers will contact all victims of personal crime and anti-social behaviour in order to establish the nature of the problem, give reassurance and establish if an enhanced service is required. Officers will get to know the victims on their area and victims will likewise get to know their local officers. If required victims will be subject to a multi-agency service in order to assist them in the problems they are facing.
