Basford

ASB - April 2025 to June 2025

During a recent multi agency meeting it has been decided that the Policing priority for April to June 2025 on all five wards (Aspley, Bilborough, Basford, Wollaton and Leen Valley) will be Anti-Social Behaviour (ASB). This is in preparation for lighter evenings, warmer weather and the school holidays. The Police will provide additional patrols around parks and open spaces as well as streets and public buildings and engage with youths signposting to local youth provision, areas highlighted of issue include Wollaton park, the Harvey Haddon Sports complex grounds and the now derelict Glenbrook management centre. We will be having days of action in relation to the off-road bike ASB issue in Broxtowe Country Park. We will also continue with operations to combat the ASB that is being seen on the NET tram network. We will also be having monthly meetings with our partners to ensure that we are patrolling the places experiencing the most ASB. We are also working with local schools and clubs to address any concerns providing a multi-layered problem-solving approach. We encourage any member of the public to report ASB to us on 101.

April Update

During April we have seen 29 reports of anti social behaviour on the Basford ward. A significant number of these incidents relate to an ongoing neighbour dispute that officers are working proactively with partner agencies to resolve. We have also had reports of children behaving anti socially by kicking footballs at peoples properties and cars, we will keep an eye on this as we come into the warmer months.
