What to do if you spot graffiti

• Remove graffiti on your property – it’s your responsibility.
• Remove graffiti within 24 hours – removing it quickly is one of the most effective ways to prevent further tagging. Be persistent.
• Report graffiti vandalism in public areas as soon as you can. Our mobile removal programme will respond within 48 hours.
• If you’re a property owner, make it harder to access to wall spaces by landscaping, planting or lighting
• Encourage your neighbours to quickly remove graffiti from their properties.
• Organise a community clean-up in your area.
• Encourage your community to paint murals on graffiti-prone walls or fences.
• Retailers – don’t sell spray cans to people under 18 (it’s against the law). Keep spray cans in covered displays and always ask for ID.
