The aim of the partnership is to make residents feel their neighbourhood is a safe place to live and visit. Reducing anti-social behavior has been identified as a priority for the residents of Portsmouth.What are we going to do about it?
The partnership will continue to work together to reduce instances of anti-social behaviour (ASB) by intervening early, diverting people away from antisocial activity, and by enforcing the law where this is appropriate.
