A NEW anti-social behaviour champion is helping people in the East End take a stand against bad behaviour.

Wesley Deans has been appointed by Tower Hamlets council to give advice and support to residents.

He will follow cases through from their first report all the way to their conclusion giving people a regular point of contact.

Andy Bamber, Head of Community Safety at Tower Hamlets Council, said: "Standing up to anti-social behaviour can take courage and we hope that this new service will give more victims the confidence they need to report anti-social behaviour in their communities."

To report anti-social behaviour residents can call the council's 24-hour freephone reporting line on 0800 917 5918. You can contact Mr Deans direct on 0207 3643155.
