Crackdown on Graffiti Tagging

Swindon Borough Council has launched a scheme to encourage residents to help rid the borough of graffiti. Rewards of £100 are being offered to people that provide evidence leading to the conviction of a graffiti “tagger”.

A graffiti count has been conducted in the town centre and photographs taken of the “tags” by the most prolific offenders to help residents identify culprits.

Residents with evidence which could lead to the conviction of a tagger should call Crimestoppers on 0845 555 1111.
