#ASBAwarenessWeek | Day 2

It's #ASBAwarenessWeek  - an opportunity for us to talk about the negative effect anti-social behaviour can have on individuals and communities, and what we're doing to tackle it in Gwent.

Here's some of what our teams have been up to:

- Pontypool officers teamed up with councillors and housing associations for a drop in session.

-  We visited Malpas Court Primary School to talk about the role of a Community Support Officer (CSO), our neighbourhood policing teams and show the children inside a police car.

- Pill CSOs and partners were in Maesglas identifying areas experiencing anti-social behaviour and putting action plans in place.

- We were in Rogerstone and Duffryn with Newport City Homes, speaking to local residents, identifying any issues and ensuring they know where and how to report concerns.

-  We ran drop in sessions in Monmouth and Abergavenny with Monmouthshire Housing Association.

- CSOs visited Coed Y Garn Primary School in Blaina.

- Caldicot officers arrested a man after breaching a community protection order which was in place following ASB in the town.  He is due in court on Monday.

- Officers in Magor are working with partners to target ASB and criminal damage at the MUGA.

If you're a victim of ASB, make sure you know your rights .
