Day of Action: A Safer, Cleaner Sutton Brook Close
Published: 1/10/2024
One Vision Housing and Merseyside Fire Services collaborated to create a safer and cleaner environment for Sutton Brook Close ahead of Bonfire Night.
On Tuesday 22nd October, Neighbourhood Services and Clearance team tackled the area’s fly-tipping problem. The community spirit was evident as customers joined in the clean-up, demonstrating their commitment to improving their neighbourhood.
In addition to the clean-up, Merseyside Fire Service conducted home safety checks. They ensured that residents had working smoke alarms and understood fire prevention measures. These crucial preventive measures are significant, especially during the upcoming festive season.
In hopes to discourage future fly-tipping incidents, the Clearance team provided a caged van and a skip, courtesy of Sovini Waste Solutions, for residents to dispose of unwanted items. This initiative aimed to address the illegal and hazardous dumping of waste.
One Vision Housing took the opportunity to engage with customers, conducting surveys to gather feedback. This valuable insight into customers concerns will inform future initiatives and support to create a happy neighbourhood.
One Vision Housing and Merseyside Fire Service’s collaboration improved the area’s appearance whilst also enhancing safety and promoting a strong sense of community.
