  • Anti-Social Behaviour
    Supporting Anti-Social Behaviour What is anti-social behaviour ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The definition of ASB as contained in the Anti-Social Behaviour Crime & Policing Act is: Conduct that has caused, or is likely to cause, harassment, alarm or distress to any person. Conduct capable of causing nuisance or annoyance to a person in relation to that persons occupation of residential premises. Conduct capable of causing housing related nuisance or annoyance to any person. Anti-social behaviour Anti-social behaviour is a broad term used to describe the day to day incidents of crime, nuisance and disorder that make many people’s lives a misery – from litter and vandalism, to public drunkenness or noisy or abusive neighbours. Such a wide range of behaviours means that the responsibility for dealing with anti-social behaviour and tackling local issues affecting resident’s quality of life is shared between a number of agencies, particularly the Council, the Police and local Housing Providers. What action can be taken? Tameside Council and partners work closely together, they are committed to protecting residents and use a range of tools and powers to stop the behaviour from continuing and where necessary bring people to account for their actions. In many instances anti-social behaviour can be prevented by effective early intervention. In some cases, involving serious or persistent anti-social behaviour, statutory powers are available to provide protection for victims, witnesses and communities. Who to contact There are several ways for you to report anti-social behaviour or request advice, you can ring the Council’s main call centre on 0161 342 8355 or contact your Integrated Neighbourhood Team for the area which you live.

  • TOG Mind Approach to Exiting the Lockdown
    Overview of Tameside, Oldham, and Glossop Mind approach to exiting the lockdown Over the last few weeks we have been developing our plans for how we will respond to the lifting of the lockdown and how we will start to support our colleagues to return to our offices and starting to see clients again on a face to face basis. During lock down most of our workers have been able to work from home offering support, counselling, and wellbeing group activities over IT platforms. We have received great feedback from clients, and we envisage that this will remain as part of our new normal way of working. However, we are acutely aware that for some, this way of working is not effective or available. This is for several reasons including lack of access to IT and the lack of privacy to safely engage in one to one therapy and counselling. It appears this is more prevalent in our younger clients. Therefore, our plan is to phase in an approach where the ‘new norm’ becomes natural, adopting physical safe distancing in line with the Government and Public Health England guidelines. To help guide us in our planning, we agreed the following principles: • Ensuring a safe working environment for staff and volunteers in offices • Ensuring we can provide private confidential space for clients to use safely, with IT equipment provided. For example, clients can use a pre-set-up counselling room and then speak via IT/phone to a worker either working from home (in a confidential space) or from a separate counselling room.

Glossary Page 28 1 Introduction Production of a Joint LAA 1.1 The National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF), published in March 2012, introduced a requirement for Mineral Planning Authorities (MPAs) to plan for a steady and adequate supply of aggregates by preparing an annual Local Aggregate Assessment (LAA). This should be based on a rolling average of 10 years sales data and other relevant local information and an assessment of all of the supply options (including marine dredged, secondary and recycled sources)1. The guidelines specify that this can be done either individually or jointly by agreement with another or other mineral planning authorities. 1.2 The Association of Greater Manchester Authorities (AGMA), the Merseyside authorities, including Halton (working through Merseyside Environmental Advisory Service (MEAS)) and the unitary authority of Warrington (known as the ‘sub-region’) have decided to continue to work together by collaborating in the production of this document in order to satisfy the new duty to co-operate imposed by Section 110 of the Localism Act and due to established links from previous sub-regional working.

  • Stalybridge Children's Centre
    Children’s centre report Tameside – Stalybridge Children’s Centre School Crescent Ridge Hill Stalybridge Greater Manchester SK15 1EA Inspection dates 16–17 September 2014 Previous inspection date Not previously inspected This inspection: Requires improvement 3 Overall effectiveness Previous inspection: Not previously inspected Access to services by young children and families Requires improvement 3 The quality of practice and services Requires improvement 3 The effectiveness of leadership, governance and Requires improvement 3 management Summary of key findings for children and families This children's centre group requires improvement. It is not good because: A majority, but not a large majority of families are registered and access the group’s services. Systems used to record data are not fully developed. This hampers the effectiveness of leadership, governance and management to monitor the uptake of the group’s services by families. The proportion of mothers who continue to breastfeed at six to eight weeks is well below the national average and a high percentage of mothers smoke during pregnancy. Not enough eligible two-year-olds are being supported to access funded nursery education places. Partnership working with providers of further adult education is under developed. In addition, adult learners are not effectively tracked to show the progress that they make. Although parents have a voice at the group they are yet to take an active role in decision-making and governance. For example, as representatives on a parents’ forum or the advisory board. This centre/children’s centre group has the following strengths: The skilled staff team and senior leaders work very well together to ensure the quality of practice and services continue to improve.
