FIGURES for all the anti-social behaviour offences in Berkshire’s towns have been released. 

Anti-social behaviour, according to Metropolitan Police, is behaviour that causes harassment, alarm, or distress to another person. 

It can include crimes such as littering, trespassing, street drinking, rowdy behaviour, nuisance noise and more. 

Data from police.uk has revealed which part of the royal county suffers most from these particular offences.

Bracknell (Central South)

Police received 36 reports of anti-social behaviour in this part of Bracknell, which covers Wildridings, Easthampstead, Jennett’s Park and Birch Hill.
