Caring for our shared spaces

Caring for our shared spaces

We’re proud to maintain our communal areas for everyone to enjoy. From footpaths and green areas to shared gardens and play areas, these spaces are cared for by our dedicated grounds team, who work hard to keep them safe, tidy, and pleasant.

But we need your help. Here’s how.

Let’s keep our shared spaces clean and welcoming for everyone

Litter and waste can attract unwanted pests like rats and flies, which carry illness and pose health risks. Dog waste, especially, is harmful, so a quick clean-up makes a big difference. When this is left behind, it can cause issues for our team when using machinery like lawn mowers. So tidying up after our pets and using bins properly help create a cleaner, more enjoyable space for all visitors, as well as protecting the health and safety of the operatives who maintain the area.

Preventing hazards

Untidy communal areas can quickly become unsafe. Overgrown plants, scattered litter, and cluttered hallways can lead to trips, falls, and other accidents.

Community wellbeing

A tidy communal area can encourage social interaction. Especially for Autmn walks and events for Halloween.

Simple ways to help:

  • Dispose of pet waste responsibly and always carry waste bags when walking your pet
  • Pick up litter when you see it, even if it’s not yours
  • Report hazards like broken glass or damaged pathways
  • Encourage others to take pride in shared spaces
