What you can do to help

Housing

• If you’re living in a house that’s too big for your needs, or you own an empty house in Broxtowe, consider downsizing, renting out a room, or bringing the property back into occupation.
• If you’re a tenant, get involved in activities like estate walkabouts and tenant engagement groups to help us improve the service for you and your neighbours.
• If you’re a developer to whom we’ve granted planning permission for housing, get on and deliver much needed housing for the community.

Business Growth

• Support your local town centre by using the shops and facilities there.
• Keep learning! The higher skilled you are the better your chance of securing higher paid work.
• If you’re a local business, provide opportunities for apprenticeship positions, training and work experience.

Health

• Take steps to promote your own health and wellbeing.
• Be social. A healthy community is one where people volunteer and there are thriving local groups and societies in Broxtowe you can join.
• Be active. Get out and about and enjoy the good quality environment we have in our Borough.

Environment

• Reduce your use of plastic and use public transport or walk or cycle instead of using the car where possible.
• Recycle as much as you can and put the right items in your recycling bin to avoid contamination of recyclable materials.
• Grow your own food, plant a tree or create a pond in your garden to encourage wildlife.
• Join the Green Rewards Scheme to improve your carbon footprint and gain green rewards for your locality.

Community safety

• Don’t be a bystander – if you see criminal activity report it to the Police, if you would prefer to report a crime anonymously contact Crimestoppers.
• Get to know your neighbours and look out for them, especially if they are elderly or vulnerable.
• Don’t mess with Broxtowe – clean up after your dog and don’t drop litter.
