Anti-social behaviour, noise and littering, at the bus stop
outside St. Nicholas Church, at the top of the High Street, and in
and around the grounds and cemetry area.
Raised on 26/09/2011
26/08/11:- I have been given pictures of youths actiing anti
socially, and when identified home visits will be done. 01/10/11:-
The youth concerned has been spoken with his parent present.
20/01/12 :- A local resident advised that youths were still playing
in this area. Some were stopped and details recorded recently.
Those stopped there again will get visits at home. 13/02/2012 :-
Youths misbehaving in the church grounds and climbing on the bus
stop outside still continues to cause concerns. Parents if you're
aware your child plays in that area please speak to them regards
respect for the Church and graves etc. PC Thomas to speak to local
council regards the bus stop and it attracting the anti social
behaviour. The question of what to do regards the bus stop was
raised at the Wakering Parish meeting, and councillors were asked
to consider changes to it to make it less appealing to "hang
around". Additional staff were in attendance on two sets of Friday
and Saturday lates to monitor and patrol the area between the
public toilets in the High Str and the Church grounds. There were
no reported incidents, or even many youths about on those
occasions. Unfortunately it appears there was some ASB around the
public toilets on the Sunday by the usual youths.
