Properties on a Friday week 1 Waste and Recycling collection incorrectly showing a non-recycling collection due today 19th April 2025.

We are aware of an error impacting Friday week 1 waste collections, which meant some properties showed a non-recycling waste collection due today, 19th April, on Where I Live and the Our Street App, ahead of weekly collections starting from 28th April. This collection was showing in error and the issue which caused this has now been resolved. As per the fortnightly week 1 waste collection still active, your next collection was due Saturday 26th April, and weekly thereafter. Please therefore take your black wheelie bin back in and represent this on your next collection date. Please accept our apologies for any inconvenience that this error may have caused.

The Safer Basildon Partnership

The vision of the Safer Basildon Partnership is "Working together to make Basildon a Safer Place".

The Safer Basildon Partnership is Basildon borough's own community safety partnership (CSP). CSPs are a statutory requirement of the Crime and Disorder Act 1998 and have a duty to formulate a strategy to reduce crime and disorder, combat substance misuse and reduce re-offending in their local area.

CSPs do not replace the work of the Police or the day to day business of the organisations involved, instead they are seen as clear routes for agencies to work together, delivering against agreed priorities, co-ordinating resources, achieving efficiencies and value for money.

Further information on the work of the Safer Basildon Partnership can be found on the following pages:

Preventing serious violence

The Serious Violence Duty is part of the Governments wider approach to prevent and reduce serious violence.

Reducing the impact of drugs on the local community

A priority of the Safer Basildon Partnership is to reduce the impact of drugs on the local community.

Improving the perception of community safety

Our ambition is to ensure that people who live, work, or visit the borough feel safe.

Focusing on early intervention, engagement and raising awareness

The Safer Basildon Partnership has worked to develop an early intervention and prevention programme to deliver key community safety messages to young people.

Tackling re-offending though Integrated Offender Management

The Safer Basildon Partnership works closely with the National Probation Service to reduce reoffending.

Protecting vulnerable people from abuse, harm, and exploitation

One of the aims of the Safer Basildon Partnership is to protect vulnerable people from abuse, harm, and exploitation, in particular victims of domestic abuse and hate crime.
