How to report Anti-Social Behaviour

We treat any behaviour that is likely to cause nuisance, harassment, alarm or distress to anyone, as antisocial behaviour (ASB), this may be ongoing behaviour, or one-off incidents. Our Anti-social Behaviour Policy (PDF 223KB) has more detailed information. Our glossary contains a list of words and terms associated with antisocial behaviour.

For more information visit our Anti-social behaviour page or email ASBReports@wrekin.com.

Compliments

If you’re happy with a particular service, please let us know using the email address compliments@wrekin.com or by calling us on 01952 217100.

Complaints and compliments are an important way for us to learn and improve our services. In April 2024, a new Code of Complaints Handling was introduced by the Housing Ombudsman Service for all landlords to meet. We have ensured that we meet this code and our self-assessment of these requirements and how we meet them has been published on the website on Self-assessment 2024 | The Wrekin Housing Group

Alongside this self-assessment we have also published a performance and service improvement report. This details information about the number and type of complaints we have received in 2023/24, how we have used complaints to improve our services and the response from our Board on how we have achieved this and future plans for improvement. Service Improvement Report 23/24 | The Wrekin Housing Group

As part of The Wrekin Housing Group, we have self-assessed as a group against the Housing Ombudsman Code of Complaints Handling, effective from 1 April 2024. The completed self-assessment can be downloaded here
