August 2009
Disruptive behaviour like vandalism, intimidation and noise nuisance can be the devil’s own problem for members of any community, and there’s a whole host of methods for tackling ASB. This month, we look at how some landlords are reaping rewards from the holistic approach to ASB – and even handing out the odd halo. We also visit the Slough council estate which has undergone a dramatic reinvention. Dogged by severe anti-social activity and deteriorating infrastructure, residents seized control; driving the creation of a new landlord and reviving their community.
We bring you 10 bite-size tips for tackling homelessness and spend 24hours with Jenny Edwards, Chief Executive of Homeless Link, who finishes her high octane day with virtual campaigning on Second Life. Midland Heart share their IT cost-cutting experiences in InHouse and Kathy Hanson from the CIH shows you how to offer excluded residents a route back to work.
