Complaint sent to letting agent re Flytipping


Yesterday, we received numerous reports that the man with the pushchair had been seen on Regent Street, Wellington.
He had been seen dumping items down an alley way near the football ground. 

Those who saw him contacted the police. We also notified Telford & Wrekin Council that more items had been dumped and advised to arrange collection.

Today, we sent a message to the letting agent who manage the property where this man lives. Please see our message that we sent to them below:

Good morning, 
Trust you are well. 
I am a coordinator of the neighbourhood watch scheme in Arleston, Telford. I have been advised that a property on Watling Street is being managed by your lettings company. 

We are being inundated with complaints from residents of our community about a man who goes around with a pushchair & collects items from peoples gardens. This man has been doing this for months now. He was originally seen in March doing this. 

We appreciate he may've been out of the area for sometime. However, he has started to go around the area again and trespass on people's properties. The police have been contacted numerous times about this man. They are fully aware of the problems this man causes. 

The council are aware too. This man takes any item that he can and will then dump it round the back of the property that he is renting, or he dumps it in other areas of Arleston or Wellington. The tenant has become a real nuisance to our neighbourhood. We want this stopped as a matter of priority. 

We will continue to work with the police and the council if we have to. However, we have now decided to get you involved as the lettings agency that this man deals with. Surely the owner of the property does not want their home being run down in this way? That's if they are aware of what is going on? 

There has been a massive problem with rats due to the amount of stuff that he has dumped. Although the area in which the property is located on isn't as bad as what it was, this man is clearly back to his old tricks and has been seen numerous times within the last week. 

We are asking you as a community to act swiftly in trying to bring this to an end. 

Please see photo evidence that we have been sent from residents who have seen this man dumping stuff within our community.

This is the response that we have received from the letting agency 


Let's hope that we soon see something being done to put a stop to this man and his antics 

Please remember to report any instances of flytipping to Telford & Wrekin Council via the "Everyday Telford" App. Any sightings of this man trespassing or taking items from people's bins or gardens, please report to the Police via 101.

Thank you for your continued support

Hello Arleston Neighbourhood Scheme Members.   I thought I would introduce myself to you as the Borough Councillor for Arleston Ward.  I am proud of my Arleston roots and strongly believe in community pride and ensuring that the community work together on issues that are important to them.  Since being elected in 2007 I have worked hard across the ward, holding regular weekly surgeries at the Community Centre and have taken up hundreds of local issues right across Arleston.   I am delighted that a Neighbourhood Watch Group has been set up in Arleston recently and look forward to working alongside the Group and the local Arleston Police Team in tackling the issues that residents are concerned about.  I know that there are many residents who are concerned about anti-social behaviour and want to live in a strong, safe and friendly community.  That’s why a Neighbourhood Watch Group is important to reduce the fear of crime, improving home security an...

We thought we would launch our very own competition to find Arleston's "Best Neighbour 2021" to coincide with "Neighbourhood Watch Week" We launched the competition via our social media channels and asked for residents to send in their nominations to us via our Facebook page. Entrants had to name who they wanted to nominate and why their neighbour should be named as "Best Neighbour". We received several nominations, which was fantastic!  We were pleasantly surprised by some of the reasons as to why nominee's had been nominated. It felt great to be launching such a lovely competition after such a difficult year that we have all been through. First nomination  Our first nomination was received by Claire Goonan who wanted to nominate Sarah Jayne Davies as "Best Neighbour". Claire's reasons for nominating Sarah were as follows: Hi I would like to nominate Sarah Davies for the best neighbour award. She is always happy to help out any one. ...
