Government Backed

Very few government backed schemes and initiatives can claim as much grassroots support as the Neighbourhood Management scheme that stpetersnm.com was born from. The main reason being that people who live in areas like St Peters in Leicester have long had a genuine and deep seated wish to see the area in which they live attain to better standards

Social Housing should not mean second rate or poor standard housing. And yet it invariably does.

Why should the fact that people who live in areas run by local authority or housing trusts mean we should put up with things that our owner occupier counterparts on the whole do not.

Well now the Government recognised this and initiated the Neighbourhood Management Board scheme that will gives residents more control over how the areas in which we live are run, and will gave us a forum in which to hold to account those agencies responsible for the management of the areas in which we live.

St Peters Neighbourhood Monitoring in St Peters Leicester has taken the very best practice from the Neighbourhood Management scheme thay ended here in April 2008 an has developed it under the Neighbourhood Monitoring brand.

Suppressing Graffiti

Graffiti left on the walls far too long creates a good return for inventment of the time spent creating it in the first place When graffiti is left on a wall for over 40 days by leicester city council that surely represents excellent value for the time, effort and resources put into this delinquent past time by those who engage in it.

Leicester city council need to stop and take note of this fact and see that their policy of dealing with oldest graffiti first has not only never served our communities well but in fact contributes to the problem by unwittingly giving a good rate of return of investment to the graffiti vandals who spend their time creating this blight.

Lets try removing the new graffiti first and watch how it shatters the primary motivating factors for those who do it.
