Some interesting news from Borehamwood on our campaign for the police and council to address Anti Social behaviour and vandalism. The Borehamwood Times reports that an officer has been recruited to address these issues. We'd love to see Mill Hill Ward have ait's own dedicated officer!

Sadly we are still seeing low level vandalism.
