Priority:
Anti-social behaviour has been highlighted as a top community concern in the recent neighbourhood priorities survey. The Princes Risborough neighbourhood team continue to deal with issues such as youth anti-social behaviour, drugs and illegal motorbike use around Princes Risborough and surrounding areas.
Action taken:
The team have issued Acceptable Behaviour contracts (ABC) to youths seen to be causing issues in the community. It is a voluntary contract between the individual and police that aims to intervene and prevent further anti-social behaviour before it has to escalate to more formal legal action. It also teaches the young people the impact of their anti-social behaviour, the dangers of continuing this behaviour into adulthood and also offers them assistance to change their habits. With the schools starting up again, the issue of youth anti-social behaviour will continue to be monitored and dealt with robustly.
In early August, the Princes Risborough neighbourhood team conducted a day of action to deal with anti-social behaviour. This was following reports of illegal motorbikes being ridden around green spaces and woodlands. Joined by their roads policing colleagues and surrounding neighbourhood teams, tickets were given to a group of motorcyclists for traffic offences, one driver was spoken to for number plate offences and a further vehicle was issued with a parking notice for causing an obstruction. They focused patrols around the Fields Estate, covering Earl Mitchell Park, and the surround area along with areas in Walters Ash.
Recently, the team have also been carrying out increased patrols around hot spot areas for anti-social behaviour such as St Durstan Park in Monks Risborough, the high street in Princes Risborough, along with park areas such as Commbe Hill and Whiteleaf Hill.
