Tag on Snap, not the street

You might see graffiti around town - tags, names or designs spray-painted onto walls, signs, or buildings. Maybe even scratched into bus stops. Some people might see graffiti as art but when it’s done without permission, it’s actually a crime.

In Northampton, we’re seeing lots of tags on the street. It doesn’t just cause damage, it can make where we live feel less safe and less cared for. That’s why we’ve launched a new campaign to encourage young people to tell us who’s doing it.

Tag on snap. Not the street.

Did you know:

  • Graffiti is considered criminal damage under the law.
  • Those caught can face fines, a criminal record or community service.
  • It costs time and money to clean up. That means less money for things we want, like parks, sports facilities, or youth clubs.
