Anti-social behaviour

We believe that all of our customers should be able to enjoy their homes and neighbourhoods without fear of any kind.

We are committed to tackling issues relating to anti-social behaviour, harassment and neighbour nuisance.

Examples of ASB include;

  • Fights and arguments in the street
  • Dog fouling or excessive barking
  • Overgrown and untidy gardens, dumped rubbish, lack of care for home
  • Theft and other crimes
  • Drug and alcohol abuse and drug dealing
  • Problems with car parking
  • Vandalism and graffiti
  • Abusive or threatening behaviour and language
  • Loud or frequent noise disturbance
  • Bad or thoughtless parking

We utilise a variety of actions to resolve incidents promptly and effectively, often working in conjunction with partners and specialist agencies, our actions may include;

  • Written or verbal warnings
  • Acceptable Behaviour Contracts (ABC’s)
  • Professional mediation
  • Anti-Social Behaviour Orders (ASBO’s)
  • Notice seeking possession
  • Professional Witnesses
  • Eviction
  • Specialist in-house solicitor
  • Rubbish and graffiti removal

We have signed up to the Government’s ‘Respect Standard’ which highlights our commitment to tackling the underlying causes of anti-social behaviour, intervening early where problems occur and creating a culture of respect in our neighbourhoods.
