Anti-social behaviour the target in Operation Confidence

Chief inspector Ian Hunter, Chilterns area commander, said: "Anti-social behaviour is a very difficult crime to categorise because it means different things to everyone.
"Mainly the offences we tend to react to range from littering and noise to criminal damage and harassment. We want this operation to show people that we are taking anti-social behaviour seriously and show residents that they can be confident of us doing something about it.
"Each of the 12 neighbourhood policing forces in the Chilterns will be given additional resources for a spell during the campaign.
"Residents of each neighbourhood can then tell us how they want to use them. It can be educating youngsters or enforcement."
The first roadshow will pull into Sainsbury's, in Chesham on October 19 before parking at Amersham Market on October 20 and Chalfont St Peter High Street on October 22.
During the campaign, youths in the district who are on Anti-Social Behaviour Contracts (ABC) for consistent offending will be invited, with their parents, to learn more about policing at Amersham Police Station.
Mr Hunter said: "This should be really useful and will give the youngsters the chance to look around the inner workings of the police even down to the custody cells.
"Hopefully this will show them that the world of criminality is not as glamorous as they might think and that this is not a place where they really want to be."
Primary schools will also be leafleted and police will be cracking down on any retailer selling alcohol or fireworks to under-age children ahead of Hallowe'en and Bonfire Night.
