  • Housing services
  • Street cleansing teams
  • Estate managers
  • Wardens
  • Neighbourhood policing teams
  • Caretakers
  • Voluntary groups including tenants and residents

Because a thorough and comprehensive approach is needed when improving residential areas, this guide will also be of interest and of value to:

  • Landscape architects
  • Designers

This guide is part of our wider ‘How to’ programme which provides free events, online support and up to date news about good practice for those who are working to improve public space. There are also guides on How to manage town centres and How to create high quality parks and open spaces.
