Info from the Police regarding the above.
Dear Councillor We understand the concerns of the local residents regards this increase in Anti Social behaviour within Crompton Park and surrounding streets. There is a patrol plan in place and we are working closely with our partner agencies in order to tackle these issues. Several youths have been identified and we are currently working with our partner agencies in order to kerb their behaviour.
In the last 7 days there has been a decrease in the number of reported incidents. We urge anybody witnessing any anti social behaviour to report it either via 101 number or contact the Oldham Borough office on 0161 856 8825.

I strongly disagree! I live near the park and there’s problem after problem! Oldham council don’t patrol the park or help the police out! The park is suppose to close at dusk and time after time kids at there till after 12am! I have had my black waste bin stollen that I’m expected to pay £29 to replace and it’s ridiculous! Also the council was to put a sound reducing fence round the football/ tennis courts that’s never happened as with a top to the football court to stop them booting the ball into neighbouring gardens and hitting parked cars in surrounding areas it’s a poorly managed park!
