Shoplifting and antisocial behaviour (begging)

The Cardiff Bay Neighbourhood Policing Team has been proactively patrolling identified shoplifting hotspots as part of our ongoing efforts to reduce anti-social behaviour and retail crime.

In addition, we have begun rolling out Operation Grammica — an initiative designed to support local businesses by educating store staff on how to effectively share CCTV footage with police. This enables quicker identification of offenders and enhances our ability to take timely enforcement action.

We remain committed to working in partnership with the community and local retailers to create a safer environment for everyone.

The Cardiff Bay Neighbourhood Policing Team has increased patrols in areas identified as begging hotspots. Working closely with partner agencies, we have made targeted ASB referrals for individuals and locations repeatedly linked to street-based activity.

This joint approach focuses not only on enforcement but also on providing support and pathways out of street-based lifestyles—helping vulnerable individuals access the services they need.

We remain committed to working with our community and partners to create a safer and more supportive environment for all.

Antisocial behaviour - noise complaints

In response to ongoing anti-social behaviour and noise complaints in the Grangetown area, the Cardiff Bay Neighbourhood Policing Team has been working in partnership with the local authority, housing providers for nuisance premises, and traffic enforcement teams to address issues involving loud vehicles in residential streets.

As part of this initiative, officers have also been utilising Section 59 powers to target repeat offenders of vehicle issues and ASB referrals for residential premises and deter further disruption.

We will continue to take a multi-agency approach to ensure Grangetown remains a safe and peaceful place to live.
