Public Meeting Called Over Anti-Social Behaviour At Park

Police and Council officials are to hold a meeting with residents over continued concerns about antisocial behaviour at Little Bowden Recreation Ground.

It will take place at the park at 6.30pm next Wednesday (June 16th)

A number of incidents in recent months have prompted Police patrols to be upped and temporary CCTV coverage to be upgraded, until a permanent camera can be installed.

Police have also been working with Harborough District Council’s Community Safety Partnership on other measures in an attempt to deal with the problems.

Cllr Simon Whelband, Harborough District Council’s cabinet lead on Community Safety, will be at the meeting and told Hfm a minority of people are causing the issues:

The meeting will be limited to 30 people – including Harborough Council officers and relevant partners – to adhere to Covid-19 restrictions.

People wanting to attend should book a place by emailing us at communitysafety@harborough.gov.uk

If the weather is bad on the day, the meeting will take place virtually on-line.
