Villages, like Whalley in Lancashire, have become a premier drinking destination during the warmer months and bank holiday weekends.

Residents have complained of anti-social behaviour including vehicles being damaged, people urinating outside homes or in gardens and loud music shaking houses until the early hours.

If you have been experiencing similar issues in your small town or village, we’d like to hear from you. How have you been affected? Do you have any concerns?
