The Wales Safer Communities Network is proud to support ASB Awareness Week 2024, an initiative spearheaded by Resolve ASB. Taking place from 18 – 24 November, this nationwide campaign aims to raise awareness about anti-social behaviour (ASB) and showcase effective ways to tackle it in our communities.
This year’s theme, #MakingCommunitiesSafer, highlights the importance of collaboration, community engagement, and supporting victims in creating safer environments for everyone. Each day of the week focuses on a different aspect of ASB prevention, with daily themes offering opportunities to engage and reflect:
- Monday 18: Partnership Day
- Tuesday 19: Victims Day
- Wednesday 20: “Let’s Talk ASB” Day
- Thursday 21: Community Heroes Day
- Friday 22: Young People’s Day
- Saturday 23: ASB and Health Day
- Sunday 24: Community Action Day
Free webinars during ASB Week
As part of the week-long event, Resolve ASB is also hosting a series of free webinars through the Resolve Summit (2.0). These webinars will delve into the daily themes, featuring expert speakers and special guests. It’s a valuable opportunity to hear from sector leaders about innovative approaches to tackling ASB.
Registration is open now, and you can sign up via the following link: Resolve Summit 2024.

Share your stories and case studies
Resolve ASB is seeking case studies to showcase best practices and personal stories in areas like partnerships, victim support, and youth engagement. If you have a story to share, whether it’s about community heroes or innovative projects addressing ASB, please send your examples to Tom at Resolve ASB.
Together, we can make a difference by building stronger, safer communities. Let’s work together this ASB Awareness Week to raise awareness, support victims, and share solutions to tackle anti-social behaviour head-on.
