A PSPO is a power available to local authorities under the Anti-Social Behaviour, Crime and Policing Act 2014, enabling councils to impose restrictions within a defined public area to address behaviour that has a detrimental impact on the community.
The proposed PSPO would help address issues including street drinking, anti-social behaviour, begging, substance misuse and other behaviours that can negatively affect residents, businesses and visitors to the town centre.

Coercive, controlling behaviour is domestic abuse. This abuse is not always easy to spot. Name calling and putting you down, turning your children against you, tracking you online or in person – these are just a few examples.
Help and support is available.
