27th July 2026Being a good neighbour in the heat
It’s been so hot over the last month. Neighbourhood Watch Network have shared tips on how to stay safe and be a good neighbour in the heat on their social channels. They’ve also got practical advice from ERA in this edition. Other highlights this month include:
· More powers for the police to tackle vehicle-related antisocial behaviour (ASB)
· Watch our ASB week webinar with Resolve
· Community spotlight on Trelewis and Bedlinog
Vehicle-related ASB seizures coming into force via the Crime and Policing Act
The measures remove the requirement for police officers to give a warning before seizing a motor vehicle used in an antisocial manner. There is also a change in the law to shorten the time between vehicles being seized by the police, and when they can be disposed of. You can read more about this here.
Concerned about a vacant property in your neighbourhood?
Empty properties can become vulnerable to antisocial behaviour, vandalism and unauthorised access, creating concern for residents. Neighbourhood Watch is working in partnership with Ad Hoc Property Management to help members raise concerns about vacant buildings in their area. If you know of a vacant property causing concern, find out more and report it here.
Antisocial behaviour awareness week webinar: reporting ASB
Reporting antisocial behaviour (ASB) is everyone’s business, but it isn’t always easy. It can really help to know where and how to report it. Neighbourhood Watch Network hosted a webinar with Resolve ASB on the topic to help provide some practical advice. If you could not join the event, you can watch the recording of it here.
