Tackling antisocial behaviour across west Norfolk

Issued: 4 Feb 2026

Status Update

Across King’s Lynn we have been continuing to tackle antisocial behaviour – particularly when it comes to illegally modified e-bikes. A number have been seized across the area including in the town centre and in Fairstead.
We’ve been visiting schools to provide learning assemblies and class-based inputs on topics from drugs to road safety. These often also include antisocial behaviour and what the law is around this.
A number of Community Protection Warnings have been issued.
We visited Kings Glory Church and spoke to worshippers there, we have also continued regular school-time patrols to ease anti-social behaviour concerns.
