Since our first public meeting in September 2023, we’ve had recognition from the police and council that ASB levels in Brixton are unacceptable and require a joint-agency, place-based approach if any sustainable progress is going to be made.Â
This led to the agreement by Lambeth Council and the police, at an ACTION on ASB! public meeting in November 2023, to develop an anti-social behaviour reduction plan for Brixton. A third public meeting took place in March 2024 where a first draft of the plan was presented.
