FUNDING will be used for extra police patrols in a bid to tackle anti-social behaviour in Staffordshire.

The Staffordshire Commissioner has been allocated £1million as part of a national programme.

It will be spent stepping up patrols in known hotspots for anti-social behaviour, knife crime and violence across the county.

The funding comes as national Anti-Social Behaviour Awareness Week – which runs until 6th July – focuses on ensuring communities can stay safe.

Staffordshire Commissioner Ben Adams said there were processes in place for police and other organisations to support residents in tackling local problems.

> “We’ve seen a reduction in anti-social behaviour over recent years, but it remains a priority for me and I welcome this week’s national focus on tackling an issue which can be harmful to victims and communities.  
>  
> “Police, councils, housing associations and others all work together to tackle anti-social behaviour through Community Safety Partnerships – and I’ve committed funding to strengthen these.  
>  
> “However, it’s important that people continue to take a stand against in their communities. Please make use of the resources available to you, such as case reviews and community remedies, and report incidents to Staffordshire Police by calling 101.”
