Tackle Anti-social Behaviour Issues in Heslington
This petition is raised by the Parish Council on behalf of the
worried residents of Heslington. Our peaceful village, a cherished
community that we all call home, is increasingly being overshadowed
by a rise in anti-social behaviour. An alarming increase in
incidents have been noted involving youths on bicycles who are
intimidating and verbally abusing our villagers.
The North Yorkshire Police’s July 2026 Parish Council report
for Heslington recorded 19 incidents reported to the Police
including ASB, thefts and criminal damage. Although these incidents
were mainly on University land, residents have reported many more
un-recorded incidents to the Parish Council. Where residents have
been collecting their own data this will be attached to the final
petition sent to the council. Many of these incidents were reported
to the Police at their recent community drop-in on Main Street.
