what issues concerned you most in your area
Street drinkers on the Cathedral grounds causing a public nuisance, engaging in rowdy behaviour.
This was a priority for April through to May. Police Activity here appears to have displaced the drinkers, they are noticeable by their absence.
Throughout the day.
19th May - This area has been subject of regular patrols and checks throughout the last PACT period, but you have asked us to maintain regular patrols here to prevent the area from becoming a favourite gathering ground again.
The City Centre SNT are all aware of this, and over the next few days all of the City Centre Neighbourhood Patrol Groups (NPGs) will be updated.
16th June Update - This has been retained today as a PACT priority. Our staff continue to deal with street drinkers, though it has been noticed that while they are still present in the city centre, they are not drinking openly as often. We continue to work closely with the Archer Project and are currently investigating, with the Primary Care Trust, the feasibility and desirability of a Wet Centre for the street drinkers as part of a longer term solution.
