PA Housing backs national effort to address antisocial behaviour during ASB Awareness Week 2025

We’re proud to stand with organisations across the UK in support of ASB Awareness Week 2025, a national campaign running from 30 June – 6 July to take a stand against antisocial behaviour (ASB) and promote safer communities. 

Led by Resolve, the UK’s leading organisation on community safety and ASB, the week is backed by Resolve members, HM Government, Local Government Association, and key partners including the National Police Chiefs’ Council, National Fire Chiefs’ Council, Historic England, Neighbourhood Watch, the Premier League Charitable Fund, Association of Police and Crime Commissioners and others. 

Now in its fifth year, ASB Awareness Week 2025 highlights the impact that ASB has on victims and communities, raises awareness of the support available to victims, and promotes partnership working, bringing together councils, housing associations, police, charities, youth organisations and community groups, reflective of the fact that everyone has a role in tackling ASB. 

PA Housing will be running a series of awareness sessions across the Midlands to promote the reporting of antisocial behaviour in our communities. We will be engaging with residents through various means such as tea and cakes; carrying out litter picking on an estate; and re-opening a communal lounge that had been closed following serious antisocial behaviour.  

Recent research from YouGov, commissioned by Resolve, found that:

  • Nearly 1 in 5 people have considered moving home due to ASB.
  • 1 in 10 have actually moved.
  • Despite this, over half of those who experienced or witnessed ASB did not report it. 

Emma Conlon, Director of Tenancy Management said:

"Everyone deserves to feel safe in their home and their neighbourhood. ASB Awareness Week is a chance to raise awareness, support victims, and build stronger partnerships to prevent antisocial behaviour before it escalates.”

Rebecca Bryant OBE, Chief Executive of Resolve, said:

“ASB is not low-level. It can have a devastating and long-lasting impact on individuals and communities and often escalates to increasingly harmful behaviour.

“We are delighted that PA Housing is backing this vital campaign. It is only through strong local partnerships that we can meet the growing challenge of ASB and ensure people feel safe where they live.”

If you are affected by ASB, you can report it to your local council’s ASB team or call the police if you are in immediate danger. Don’t suffer in silence—help and support are available.
