Report antisocial behaviour
Antisocial behaviour takes many forms, from aggressive, noisy or abusive behaviour to neighbourhood disturbances involving drugs, abandoned cars or animals.
If you’ve witnessed antisocial behaviour, please report it to us.
Your neighbourhood can be an area where you live, work, or visit often.

Report fireworks creating unwanted noise and creating a disturbance
If you’re experiencing nuisance noise from a neighbour regularly setting off fireworks on their property between the hours of 7am to 11pm, please report this to your local council.
UK night time hours are 11pm to 7am. It's against the law to set off fireworks during these times.
Exceptions to this are:
- Bonfire Night (until midnight)
- New Year’s Eve, Diwali, and Chinese New Year (until 1am)
If you are experiencing a one-off, prolonged night of disturbance caused by illegal firework use, you can report this to us.
