Today marks the start of Anti-Social Behaviour (ASB) Awareness Week (18-24 November 2024), and this year's theme is #MakingCommunitiesSafer.
Each day will have a different focus, including Partnership Day, Young People's Day, Let’s Talk ASB Day, and more — so stay tuned to our Facebook page for updates.
At CGA, we are committed to tackling ASB and making our neighbourhoods better for everyone. We want you to enjoy your homes and feel safe in your neighbourhood. If you experience anti-social behaviour, we will work with you to resolve your concerns.
Motorbike nuisance
This year, we are placing a particular emphasis on tackling motorcycle-related nuisance, following concerns directly raised by our tenants, including issues such as:
- Anti-social driving, stunts, and illegal use of bikes
- Misusing off-road vehicles, like riding quad bikes in parks
- Riding unlicensed powered vehicles on public roads (which is against the law).
These behaviours endanger road users and pedestrians and can significantly disrupt communities.
We are working with our partners, Lancashire Constabulary and the Police and Crime Commissioner, who have the powers that can lead to seizing nuisance motorcycles and quad bikes. We will continue working together to tackle ASB and are committed to making our communities a safer and nicer place to live. Earlier this year, Lancashire Police added ‘anti-social driving’ to their campaign against anti-social behaviour – Op Centurion. Read more about Op Centurion here.
