Tackling Anti Social Behaviour
Contact Us at any time to report an ASB incident or request advice. We can arrange to meet with you at any safe location to agree a short term action plan. We will not reveal your identity without your permission.
There is a range of practical action that our Housing Officers can take to help you.
Action that WPH will consider:
- Offering mediation
- Giving warnings
- Acceptable Behaviour Contracts (ABCs) - a written agreement that outlines a list of actions that a perpetrator agrees to stop and the consequences of breaching the agreement
- Referral to other partner agencies - When specialist intervention or support is needed. More information about agencies WPH works in partnership with.
- Legal action, including:
- Possession Orders—immediate and postponed
- Anti-Social Behaviour Injunctions (ASBIs)
- Anti-Social Behaviour Orders (ASBOs)
- Demotion Orders - reducing rights by giving a starter tenancy in place of a full tenancy)
- Re-housing – in exceptional cases only
