How to report antisocial behaviour

Recording incidents is very important. Events can easily become confused, so recording what happened, who was involved, when, where and how you were affected really helps to show the impact of the problem.

Antisocial behaviour should be reported to the police or your housing provider if you are a tenant with a housing association. If you would like to report antisocial behaviour anonymously, call Crimestoppers at 0800 555 111.

Police

Antisocial behaviour can be reported to the police by dialling 101. Your issue will be dealt with by a police team in your area.

You can also report antisocial behaviour to the police using an online form. If you are in a danger or crime is taking place, always call 999.

Parks

If you would like to report antisocial behaviour in parks and open spaces you will need to contact the Parks Police.

Council estates

Talk to your housing provider if you are a tenant with a housing association, your housing officer or adviser can help. For private tenancies your landlord or agent may also be able to assist.

You can report domestic and commercial noise online or calling 020 8871 6127. If you live on a council estate, there is a separate guidance for reporting antisocial behaviour.

Mediation

Mediation is an effective way of resolving neighbour disputes and tackling anti-social behaviour. It provides a safe and supervised space where people in conflict can get their issues out in the open and work together to solve their problems. The process is led by two trained mediators who facilitate the conversation without taking sides.

Mediation is voluntary, completely confidential and highly successful - most cases are settled after the first meeting.

Wandsworth Mediation Service offers a free community mediation service to all Wandsworth residents.

Community Trigger

If you have reported antisocial behaviour on multiple occasions, but the situation has not improved, you may wish to consider using the Community Trigger.
