Neighbour problems

Chevin Housing Association is committed to achieving and maintaining a peaceful and secure environment for you by working in partnership with residents and other agencies to combat antisocial behaviour. We are aware that antisocial behaviour threatens physical and mental health, safety and security of individuals, groups and communities and undermines people's human rights.

Examples of antisocial behaviour include;

hate behaviour that targets identified groups because of perceived differences, such as racist behaviour or language
using or threatening to use violence
using abusive or insulting words
damage or threatening to damage another person's house or possessions
loud music
graffiti
shouting, arguing and door slamming
drunkenness
selling or abuse of illegal drugs
dumping rubbish
dogs barking or fouling
playing ball games close to people's homes

We have a small team that targets and directs resources to serious antisocial behaviour cases. The team ensures the effective management of cases and monitors antisocial behaviour across our stock.

If you would like to speak to somebody about problems you are having please contact Customer Services on 0845 270 1088.

Please note that you can now report incidents of antisocial behaviour out of normal working hours and at weekends by ringing 0845 5436415. This is a helpline run by Sitex/Orbis on behalf of Chevin Housing Association.
