and live on Freeview channel 276
The PSPO that covers Burnley town centre is due for renewal later this year and, following work by council officers and partners from key stakeholders, the existing PSPO has been reviewed.
The order covers incidents such as begging on the streets, the misuse of skateboards, bicycles and scooters, so-called ‘chugging’, as well as prohibited areas for youths after a certain time.
