Police ‘proactively engage’ with Eastbourne groups after reports of anti-social behaviour
Sussex Police have ‘proactively engaged’ with local groups after reports of anti-social behaviour (ASB) around Hampden Park.
A Sussex Police spokesperson said officers from the Eastbourne Policing Teams visited a number of local groups for youngsters and teens to ‘look at ways of working together to help encourage young people away from ASB’.
They added: “Police stopped in at Eastbourne Roller Disco to meet staff and teens taking part in some of the activities at the venue, from late‑night 'L8 Sk8s', new to skating lessons and family discos for all different age groups.
"We recognise that ASB can impact local communities, and we will continue to work with partners and community organisations to support positive opportunities for young people in the area.
"If you have non‑emergency community concerns, please contact your local policing team online or by calling 101.
"In an emergency or if a crime is in progress, always call 999.
"Thank you to the Eastbourne Roller Disco team for having us along.”
