POLICE are working to tackle anti social behaviour and drug misuse at a Boscombe Cliff Gardens 'hot spot'.

Dorset Police have been working with partner agencies following reports of anti social behaviour and drug misuse at a toilet block in Boscombe Cliff Gardens.

A Dorset Police spokesperson said: "The toilet block has been out of use for some time and this has caused it to became a bit of a hot spot area for people to litter, use or deal drugs and cause issues for the local community.

"We have sourced funding to put some gates up at the openings which will discourage those wanting to congregate there, and more importantly, we are looking at ways that this space can be utilised by the local community for all to enjoy."
