You can report asb out of hours on 020 8356 3310, 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

If you are frightened because of offensive or abusive behaviour towards you, please get in touch with your Neighbourhood Office. We will need details of the problem so you should keep a diary of events. We will advise you on what to do and give you whatever support we can. Of course, if a crime has been committed, you should contact the Police as well.

If a problem is between neighbouring tenants and it involves a breach of the Tenancy Agreement, we can take legal action against the offending tenant. We take cases of harassment, including racial harassment, very seriously. If the problem is with a private household we will give you advice and support on what you can do. You can also get advice from a solicitor.

If you think a neighbour is the victim of anti-social behaviour and is in need of help, we may be able to approach them and discuss their needs. We will treat whatever you tell us as confidential.

We will not normally move you but will try to sort the problem out. However, if there is clear evidence that you or a member of your family are in danger we may be able to help you transfer to another property.

Anti-social behaviour is any behaviour which harms the quality of life of residents in an area, causing distress or alarm. It includes noise, drug dealing, theft, vandalism and prostitution. It also includes harassment and hate crime.

We will take tough action against anti-social behaviour. We consider this a high priority.  If we receive a complaint about the anti-social behaviour of a neighbour, any member of their household or a visitor, we will investigate the problem thoroughly and will take appropriate action. This could be a warning letter, an injunction, or even eviction.  In serious cases, Hackney Homes and the Council can apply for an anti-social behaviour order. We will work with other agencies to deal with such behaviour, including the Police (if you agree).

We will evict you if you or anyone living, lodging with or visiting you is convicted of harassment or drug dealing.
