Vandalism
Vandalism such as damage to property or graffiti is a form of criminal damage and should be reported to the police.
In an emergency, call 999.
For non-emergencies, call 101 or use the police’s online reporting service.
If the graffiti is offensive or hate-related, or if the vandalism is happening right now, please contact the police immediately.
Who to Report It To
If the vandalism involves public buildings, monuments, benches, or bins, it’s usually the responsibility of your local council.
If the damage relates to an Arches property or land, please report it to us directly—either by phone, or using our reporting form.
We’ll assess the situation and take appropriate action.
