It's Antisocial Behaviour Awareness Week from July 3rd to 9th - and we're taking the opportunity to remind everyone to 'love your village' and do their bit to prevent antisocial behaviour.
Over the course of the week, advice and guidance will be available at Codsall Community Hub.
We will also be posting tips for things our communities can do to prevent antisocial behaviour as part of our 'love your village' campaign.
On the morning of Monday, July 3rd, and the afternoon of Thursday, July 6th, representatives from ASB Harmony and South Staffordshire Police will be on-hand to give advice at Codsall Community Hub.
There will also be signposting to your local Police Community Support Officer during the week.
ASB Harmony is a charity which supports victims of antisocial behaviour.
