Anti-social behaviour

Your neighbourhood officers are committed to tackling anti-social behaviour (ASB) through engagement, collaborative working and problem solving.

Everybody has the right to feel safe in their community, and we’ll take robust action against those acting disorderly and those who have an adverse impact on the wellbeing of our towns.

The team will proactively patrol hotspot areas, providing a visible deterrent with partners.

Officers will also utilise the well-established Safer Caerphilly Anti-Social Behaviour 4 Strike Process to address poor behaviour.

Officers have issued several Anti-social behaviour referrals to youths identified as causing issues in the area and will continue to patrol these hotspots

We’re working with colleagues in We Don’t Buy Crime to advise businesses how best to increase security and minimise the risk of offenders returning to their premises. We’ll be visible in the are continuing to work alongside partners at the council.

Several known shoplifters have received custodial sentences as a result of work by the Caerphilly Neighbourhood Team and we will continue to tackle shoplifters
