A dispersal notice was put in place in Ilkeston on April 1 to April 3 after several anti-social behaviour issues in the town centre and people there loved it. The notice came into effect after officers were called to incidents in recent weeks which involved antisocial behaviour in Ilkeston town centre.
It allows police to disperse people from a marked area of the town if they are involved in any anti-social behaviour. They can also take children under 16 to their homes. Local businesses and shoppers in the town told Nottinghamshire Live that they are happy action is being taken.
Gemma Clarke, 35, manager of Workshop Cafe, on Bath Street says that she thinks it’s brilliant the dispersal notice was put in place and apart from the anti-social behaviour the town is nice. She said: “It is a good thing that something has been done about it.
