Being a predominantly retail environment, we suffer from a high-level of shop theft. Alongside the thefts businesses also suffer with ASB linked to this activity.

Street homelessness community continue to be a problem in Bristol and we are working in close partnership with Bristol City Council's Streetwise Interventions Services team and other agencies in order to tackle this behaviour and support those in need of support.

We are aware of issues regarding anti-social behaviour caused by street drinkers in Broadmead. These issues can occur throughout the day, but tend to be more prevalent in the early evenings and around the supermarket areas as well as the communal seating areas in the centre.

Walk And Talk

Avon and Somerset Police are inviting women to meet with female police officers and PCSOs to show them areas in which they feel vulnerable or unsafe in their local communities.

Walk and Talks are open to women aged 18 and above who wish to share their worries or concerns regarding their safety in the local area with officers.

• You will be paired with a female police officer or PCSO
• The walks will take place at a mutually convenient time for you
• They will last around 30 minutes
• They will be tailored to the areas you wish to address or discuss
