Over recent months, local residents have raised concerns about levels of antisocial behaviour in hotspot areas across the neighbourhood. Local policing teams had been responding and working with those involved however it was felt a more innovative way of working needed to be found.

Co-ordination with Preston Police, Community Gateway Association, Lancashire Young Peoples Service, Fishwick Rangers and Street Pastors has now meant that activities and interventions are being run and set up for local children and young people plus work with families and adults across the ward.
