Littlemoor

What you've told us

Our customer survey highlighted ongoing concerns around litter and fly tipping within the Littlemoor community on the roads, driveways and gardens. We’ve previously supported with skip days working alongside our colleagues from different teams to remove the fly tipping from the area, but will be looking to create a wider response going forward as this continues to be an issue for the community.

Our wider feedback has suggested that there is an improvement in levels of crime and anti-social behaviour (ASB) in the Littlemoor area, although there continues to be an increase in use of the Littlemoor foodbank, demonstrating the ongoing impact of Cost of Living, we’ll look to work alongside the foodbank and the Nest to help our customers access affordable food.

Looking ahead, we’re aware there are changes coming up for the Top Club, so we’ll be looking to support delivery of community opportunities with a focus on use of green space and activities for children and young people to support this transition. Furthermore, we’ll be focusing on increasing support and opportunities within the Bincombe area as this community continues to grow and will deliver a series of community engagement events over the coming months, including workshops with Dorset Wildlife.
