Harassment is unwanted conduct that violates another person’s dignity.
This includes behaviour that is verbally or physically intimidating, threatening, or that degrades, humiliates or offends people. It can include damage to property, graffiti, threats of physical attack: it can be persistent or a single act.
We aim to eliminate unlawful discrimination, promote equality of opportunity and good relations between people of different racial and social groups.
Anyone found responsible for harassment is in breach of their tenancy conditions. If you or any member of your family are harassed we will investigate it thoroughly and do everything possible to stop it.
