Acts of vandalism

Vandalism is an illegal, anti-social activity that creates a negative impression of an area and contributes to people's fear of crime.

At best vandalism is unsightly and inconvenient, such as graffiti on walls or damaged trees. At worst, it may endanger life, for example if people can't make emergency calls from phone boxes. It also costs you money in taxes, insurance premiums and bills.

If you would like to report any acts of vandalism to council property or street furniture, please contact the Frontline Services team:

Tel: 020 8489 1335
Email: frontline@haringey.gov.uk

If you witness an act of vandalism taking place, you are advised not to intervene yourself, but to phone the police.
