Woman from Twigworth served with anti-social behaviour injunction

A woman from Twigworth has been issued with a civil injunction following her involvement in anti-social behaviour in the area.

Deborah Harkness, aged 52, was given an Anti-Social Behaviour Injunction at Cheltenham and Gloucester County Court on Thursday 5 November.

It was brought by Solace after working in partnership with Tewkesbury Neighbourhood Policing Team following Harkness’ involvement in several anti-social behaviour related incidents throughout the summer months.

This included drinking alcohol and being under the influence of alcohol in a public place, and being verbally abusive to people in the community.

The judge granting the order heard how there were concerns that Harkness’s behaviour was having a detrimental effect on the local community.

The injunction against Harkness forbids her from:

  1. Engaging in conduct which causes or is capable of causing alarm or harassment or distress to any person within the area of Twigworth and the city of Gloucester;
  2. Using or threatening to use violence towards any person within the area of Twigworth and the city of Gloucester;
  3. Drinking alcohol in a public place that is not a licenced premises or within her own property.

The injunction, which was served against Harkness on Friday 6 November, is in place until 4pm on 5 November 2027.
