Graffiti
What information is helpful to report
Before you take action, make sure it's safe to do so - remember if someone is graffitiing they are unlikely to welcome people observing them or taking notes.
Please be as descriptive as possible about the graffiti and where it is.
Location
- Location - for example what's the street, town, grid reference, and is it near a certain landmark?
- What is the graffiti on. Is it on a private or council house, is it a business property or bench?
- Is the graffiti high up / out of reach?
Description
- A general description of the graffiti, such as size
- Is the graffiti racist, political, or offensive?
If you saw someone graffitiing
- Who was with you?
- Who did you see?
- How many people did you see?
- Did you recognise any of them?
- Can you describe them, for example gender, hair colour, distinguishing features?
