In this episode of The Housing Sector Podcast, we delve into the critical issue of antisocial behaviour (ASB) in social housing, featuring insights from Jacqueline Parks. Drawing from the SHAC report titled The Antisocial Social Landlord, we explore the alarming reality of landlords failing to address ASB effectively, often treating victims as perpetrators.
Jacqueline discusses shocking statistics, including that 25% of ASB reports receive no response, and 40% of residents felt they were treated as troublemakers. Furthermore, we uncover how 30% of landlords retaliate against tenants for reporting issues. This episode highlights the devastating impact ASB has on mental and physical health, with landlords frequently neglecting their responsibilities, as outlined in the Antisocial Behaviour, Crime and Policing Act 2014.
Tune in to hear Jacqueline’s perspective on what needs to change to support tenants and address the ongoing failures in social housing management.
