What's New?
Earlier this year, the Neighbourhood Management Team, in Partnership with North Somerset Housing launched a Community Warden Scheme in South Ward as a new way of managing street care services on the four estates.
The Community Warden team comprises of 2 Wardens and 2 street cleaners who will be on patrol every day ensuring the streets are clean and tidy as well as keeping an eye on ‘hotspot’ areas identified through the fortnightly Joint Tasking Briefings.
As well as taking responsibility for litter picking, removal of fly-tipping and grafitti they will also act as a link with other agencies including North Somerset Council to report specific problems such as abandoned cars, vandalism and dog fouling.
The Wardens can be contacted in the following ways:
- Stop them when you see them on patrol.
- Contact them via the North Somerset Housing office on St Andrews Parade on 01934 428 700.
- Come to one of the surgeries they’ll be holding over the next few months – leaflets will be distributed to households in South Ward over the next few weeks and will also be detailed in the local press.
If you have any questions about the Warden Scheme, please contact Vicki on 01934 426 736.
