Dealing with crime

Anti-social behaviour

Anti-social behaviour can be unpleasant and take many forms.  The Council has a specialist unit which helps to tackle anti-social behaviour across the Borough.  Find out more on how the Council can help with Anti-Social Behaviour.

Community safety

The Safer Rotherham Partnership has been set up to help keep the people of Rotherham free from crime and disorder.  It brings together the Council, South Yorkshire Police, NHS Rotherham, the South Yorkshire Probation Service, South Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service, the Youth Offending service and the Chamber of Commerce.

Victim support

Victim Support is the national charity for people affected by crime.  It is an independent organisation, offering a free and confidential service.  You do not have to have reported the crime to get help.

Police force

South Yorkshire Police are responsible for policing within the region.  If you wish to report an emergency, telephone 999 immediately.  To report a crime other than an emergency, the telephone number is 0114 2202020.
