Cambs police renew focus on anti-social behaviour


Cambridgeshire Constabulary is supporting Anti-Social Behaviour Awareness Week 2026, which ran from June 29 to July 5, by emphasising the day-to-day work that helps communities feel safer.

Superintendent Paul Rogerson, ASB lead for the force, said: “Last week highlighted the work we do every day to tackle anti-social behaviour and support our communities.

“We are committed to listening when people contact us, responding quickly and taking the right action to resolve issues.

“By working closely with our partners and focusing on the concerns raised by residents, we can address the harm caused by ASB and help ensure people feel safe where they live.”

Led by Resolve UK and supported by the National Police Chiefs’ Council (NPCC), the awareness week aims to shine a light on the damaging effects of ASB and the efforts underway to tackle it.

Cambridgeshire officers will carry out targeted patrols, engage with residents, and work alongside partners throughout the week.

The constabulary works closely with councils, housing providers and community groups to prevent ASB, support victims and take action against repeat offenders.

Measures such as criminal behaviour orders, closure orders, and Community Protection Notices and warnings are used where appropriate.

Police and Crime Commissioner Darryl Preston said: “We all have a right to feel safe where we live.

“Anti-social behaviour (ASB) can cause misery in our communities and while officers work hard to tackle these issues, it is a partnership approach that leads to safer and stronger communities.

“Tackling ASB remains a priority for me, and I continue to invest in our local Community Safety Partnerships who play a vital role in supporting the police to resolve the issues that matter to local residents.”

Residents are encouraged to report ASB either online at www.cambs.police.uk or by calling 101.
