Begging


We have received reports of aggressive begging in the town centre and are investigating. Please be aware that begging and homeless are not the same thing.

If you are concerned about someone who is begging and think they are homeless you can help them by reporting it to Cornwall Council or via https://thestreetlink.org.uk/

Other ways to help could be donating to a local foodbank or charity. Information on Launceston’s foodbank is here - https://launceston.foodbank.org.uk/

You can also report antisocial behaviour here - https://www.devon-cornwall.police.uk/.../report.../
