Communities and neighbourhoods
A home is more than just your property, it’s the area where you live. We’re committed to keeping your area clean and safe and creating communities and neighbourhoods that you can be proud of.
Supporting you in your community
Your Community Housing Officer (CHO) is your main point of contact. They work out on your estate and know all the services that can benefit you.
Your CHO can:
Clean and green neighbourhoods
Our dedicated Neighbourhood Services Team support the smooth running of your building, local area and more. They will remove flytipping on our land and report ASB.
If you live in one of our blocks our team provide you with a regular caretaking service to ensure they are clean and safe. This service is delivered daily to high rise blocks and a minimum of once a month to low rise blocks.
The caretaking service for customers in blocks includes:

Community safety
Every year we help customers stay safe in the areas where they live. We deal with anti-social behaviour (ASB), crime, domestic abuse and other issues that could impact the safety of customers. We operate CCTV systems and work closely with external partners such as the police and local authorities.

Working together
We like working with customers to keep our neighbourhoods clean and safe. We organise local events from estate walks to communal skips for neighbourhood clear outs.
Help us keep streets clear
We spend around £300,000 a year clearing up waste and unwanted items dumped on our estates. We believe this money could be spent on improving your communities. You can help us by:
- Reporting fly-tipping to us on 0300 555 6666 or to your local council.
- Use your council’s bulky waste collection service to get rid of large items.
- Request a larger bin if you need one from your local council.
