Current Priorities
Issue
Anti-social behaviour at South Beach playing fields, Blackthorn Drive, Amersham Rd, Mulberry Close, Blyth, Northumberland. We received a significant number of reports of youth anti-social behaviour, littering, verbal abuse to dog walkers, motorbike disorder and criminal damage.
Action
We have proactively identified the young people involved and letters have been sent to their homes.
We're carrying out proactive patrols alongside Community Safety Officers. As well as engaging with the offenders directly, we're regularly visiting schools to educate young people on the impact of their behaviour
The Council have supported the efforts and made the area less appealing to congregate – cut back bushes and trees and carried out general maintenance.
Bins secured.
