Putting Victims First - the Community Trigger
Community Trigger is a new way you can tell us if you're concerned that we've not acted against reports of anti-social behaviour (ASB).
Anti-social behaviour reports are taken seriously. The anti-social behaviour team work together with the following places to tackle this issue:
- West Yorkshire Police
- Wakefield and District Housing
If you feel we are not doing a good job we need you to tell us.
You can activate the Community Trigger if you believe that…
- you have reported ASB on three occasions in the last six months and no action has been taken.
- different victims have made reports about the same problem five times in the past six months.
- you have reported a hate incident in the last three months and no action has been taken.
