Jigsaw to mark UK’s first ASB Awareness Week

Jigsaw to mark UK’s first ASB Awareness Week

Jigsaw Homes Group has joined a national campaign that is bringing together people and organisations from across the country to take a stand against anti-social behaviour and make communities safer.

Running from July 19 to 25, ASB Awareness Week – Making Communities Safer aims to encourage communities to take a stand against ASB and highlight the options available to those facing it.

Organised by community safety specialists Resolve, ASB Awareness Week is being backed by the Home Office, Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG), Local Government Association (LGA), National Police Chiefs’ Council (NPCC) and the National Fire Chiefs’ Council (NFCC).

Rebecca Bryant OBE, chief executive of Resolve, said: “As the nation begins to recover from the impact of the pandemic and our society and economy celebrates the start of return to normal life, it is important that the challenge of ASB continues to be given the priority it needs nationally and locally so that people feel safe in their homes and communities.

“It is vital to develop partnership approaches across communities to deal with the growing challenges around ASB.

Ivan Wright, Assistant Director of Neighbourhoods said: “All landlords play a key role in preventing and tackling anti-social behaviour and hate crime. We recognise the adverse impact anti-social behaviour and hate crime can have on our tenants, residents and the wider neighbourhoods in which we work

“We operate a victim-centred and holistic approach to dealing with it which is demonstrated through four key areas of activity including prevention and early intervention, support, partnership working and enforcement”

We have a wide range of ways that customers can report an incident of ASB or hate crime so please get in touch with us:

  • By telephone during office hours
  • By email
  • Online, through ‘My Jigsaw’
  • By writing to us at our Head Office.
