Clarion Housing has launched a ‘good neighbour code’ to boost the quality of its residents’ lives.

The code was launched on Thursday at Sutton Community Hall, attended by residents, representatives from the police and community groups. Clarion Housing has 700 properties in Bradford.

The ‘good neighbour code’ encourages residents to be clean and safe, provides advice on looking out for your neighbours, cleaning up after pets and looking after gardens.

As part of this programme, Clarion also announced that it will be holding weekly surgeries at Sutton Community Hall every Wednesday from 11 September 11.

Kirsten Wildman, head of housing (North) for Clarion, said: “By working together, we can transform lives and communities here in Bradford and make our neighbourhoods better places to live.”
