This priority was originally agreed at the meeting Aheld at St Marks Church Broomhill on Thursday 30th September 2010. 

The decision was made on Friday 24th June to remove this as a PACT priority. 

Friday 17th September 2010 saw the first of the new intake of Students arrive for the new term.  This date also saw the commencement of Officers from the Broomhill SNT working for the next ten days until 4am patrolling the area in order to deal with ASB behaviour.

Officers provided a high visibility presence on foot and in vehicles around the main Broomhill centre, both Endcliffe/Ranmoor villages as well as rented accomodation in Crookes, Ecclesall, and Sharrowvale areas.

A MOCAM was also placed on Fulwood Rd to monitor any incidents that occured.

A number of Students were spoken to re their behaviour.  Any taxi found waiting on Fulwood Rd near to the junctiion with Endcliffe Vale Rd were suitably advised and moved on. 

During this time there were no reported incidents from the public.

The above P.A.C.T priority will be reviewed at the next meeting to be held at on Thursday 30th September 2010 at St Marks Church Broomfield Rd Broomhill.

AS NO MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC WERE PRESENT AT THE MEETING AND THERE HAD BEEN NO REPORTED INCIDENTS, IT WAS DECIDED TO REMOVE THIS AS A P.A.C.T PRIORITY.  IN ADDITION THE MOCAM WILL BE RELOCATED WITHIN BROOMHILL.

Between 16th & 26th August 2010, officers from the local team have been patrolling this area in a bid to reduce ASB, and also provide reassurance to residents and members of the community. Even though alot of the nusiance has occured mainly during evenings, passing attention will take place during the day whilst the school holidays are in place.

In view of the reduction of incidents, the MOCAM that was in place, has been removed.

On Friday 9th July, one youth-who was over 18yrs-was warned about drinking in front of minors and therefore had alcohol confiscated. 

There has been a dramatic decline in numbers of youths at these locations over the past few weeks and those that have been present have ben well behaved and not been causing any problems.

Alcohol and the availability of it-in particular to young people-is a contributing factor to anti-social behaviour.  Test purchase operations have been undertaken and have proved successful.  Further ones will be carried out to reduce underage drinking.

Work is continuing within local schools through our CYPO (Children's and Young Persons Officer) to target, engage and steer young people away from causing anti-social behaviour. 

Sheffield Futures are now working in the Fulwood area on Thursday evenings.  This involves patrolling the locality, engaging with youngsters, and advising them on issues such as Healty Living & Street Work.  Further information re this initiative can be obtained from Viky Bullock (Youth Worker) on 201 6627.

Both Sheffield Futures and Activity Sheffield are organising events in our area for the school holidays.  For full deatils of these, log onto:
