During the consultation, Woolavington Parish Council responded saying that a group of teenagers, aged around 14, had been 'invading the village hall disturbing groups who had booked it and refusing to leave'.

The council also said the group had been seen causing damage to vehicles, even jumping on a police car in one incident. Witnesses also said the teens had used foul language, broken windows with stones and drinking alcohol in public places.

Meanwhile in Burnham, one publican responded to the consultation by saying more needs to be done to stop anti-social behaviour from certain licensed establishments in the town.
