Persistent anti-social behaviour causes widespread distress for local communities and it is vital that local police, councillors and the community work together to identify and address it.

That’s why I welcomed the opportunity to meet with PC Austin Clarke (Beat Manager for Watton), Cllr Tina Kiddell and Cllr Claire Bowes recently – gathering at Church Walk to discuss local ASB that had been reported in the area.

Norfolk Constabulary take reports of ASB extremely seriously and I am pleased that Austin and his colleagues are working with local councillors to take action. I am committed to supporting those efforts and will continue to liaise with local councillors to ensure ASB reports (along with other local issues) raised by constituents are brought to Austin’s attention.

If YOU are affected by local ASB or another police issue, please report it to Norfolk Constabulary via 101 or via the ‘Report’ page on their website – which can be found here.
