A SERIES of roadshows have been organised to help people play a role in tackling incidents of anti-social behaviour.

Information days will be held in Ryedale next month to assess communities' concerns, improve people's understanding and suggest how to deal with the problem.

Ryedale Housing Association is working with police, Safer Ryedale, the district council and the Citizens Advice Burea on the initiative.

Sarah McManus, the housing association's spokesman, said anti-social behaviour was not just confined to social housing so the events were open to everyone.

The roadshow will visit Memorial Hall, Pickering, on September 14; Richardson's Bowling Club, Norton, on September 16 and Ryedale District Council Chamber, Malton on September 23.

Each event will be in the afternoon to early evening.
