Neighbour disputes- who can help?

Disagreements between neighbours can happen, but there are ways to resolve them without things escalating. If you’re experiencing issues such as noise complaints, boundary disputes, or anti-social behaviour, here are some agencies that can help:

✅ **Police / PCSOs** – For criminal matters or persistent anti-social behaviour. 

✅ **Local Council** – Handles issues like noise, rubbish, and housing concerns. 

✅ **Housing Associations** – If you’re in social housing, they can mediate and enforce tenancy agreements. 

✅ **Harmony** – A specialist mediation service that helps neighbours talk through problems and reach solutions peacefully.

**Tip:** Communication is key! Often, a calm conversation can prevent a small issue from becoming a big problem.

📞 If you’re unsure who to contact, start with your local council or community policing team for advice.
