VICTIMS of anti-social behaviour are being urged to attend special drop-in sessions in Leeds to help them deal with the problem.

Officers from Leeds City Council's Anti-Social Behaviour Unit will attend the surgeries in Morley to offer advice to anyone being persecuted by unacceptable behaviour.

Councillor Richard Lewis said: "If we make a difference to just one person's life by helping them feel safe in their own home then these sessions are worthwhile."

He added that the sessions were treated in the strictest confidence and no action would be taken without the full consent and co-operation of the victim.
