What are neighbourhood wardens?

*

A warden provides a uniformed, semi-official presence in a residential area with the aim of improving quality of life.
*

Wardens can promote community safety, assist with environmental improvements and housing management but also contribute to community development.
*

Wardens are supervised by a scheme manager and have the support of local residents and key agencies like the police.
*

Wardens may patrol, provide concierge duties or act as “super caretakers”
*

Wardens can contribute to effective neighbourhood management.

What are street wardens?

*

Street Wardens provide highly visible uniformed patrols in town and village centres, public areas and neighbourhoods.
*

Street wardens are similar to neighbourhood wardens, but have more of an emphasis on caring for the physical appearance of the area. They tackle environmental problems such as litter, graffiti and dog fouling, as well as promoting community safety.
*

They also help to deter anti social behaviour; reduce the fear of crime; and foster social inclusion
