Local Priorities

Can you do something about the Fly tipping issues, abandoned vehicles and the general state of Vulcan & Valiant estate.

Issued: 1 May 2026

Status Update

We are collaborating with the Council, Torus Housing, and the local MP to address the root causes of issues on this estate. A new Residents Association has been formed to ensure those most affected have a regular voice. Police presence has increased, including plain-clothed patrols, and several vehicles have already been removed. Your local PCSO is committed to finding long-term solutions rather than temporary fixes. This remains an ongoing priority until residents are satisfied with the results.
