Specialist training for Saffron’s Neighbourhood Team to help tackle ASB

Thursday 20th of October 2022

Four members of Saffron’s Neighbourhood Team are currently completing specialist training in Community Safety. The training will help to improve the team’s knowledge in key areas of community safety and anti-social behaviour (ASB) so they can further support tenants.

 

The training is being run Community Safety Professionals Training Ltd, the national leading provider, who also work with the police, local authorities and other housing providers.

 

Three of the team will complete a BTEC Level 3 Advanced Award in Community Safety, Crime and Nuisance Management for Practitioners, focusing on the tools and powers available to tackle ASB and community safety issues.

 

Jennifer Hoye, Neighbourhood Manager is also completing a BTEC Level 5 which focuses on national strategic development and the wider community safety agenda. She said: “Tackling ASB is a priority for Saffron. The BTEC training will ensure we are using the best tools and powers available to prevent and tackle anti-social behaviour. We want our homes and communities to be places where people feel safe and want to live.”
