Re: Our bin shed area being used as a public toilet!
So sad that our capital city should be as run down as this. Immigration may bring a good mix of cultures but sometimes there's not much that's good about it.I expect you've already tried most things but I'd send as much evidence as possible to all the political parties in the area asking them to take and accept responsibility. I'd also look at the legal side of your shared ownership and see what rights you have e.g. if you were renting with an AST contract, you have the right to peace and quiet. Maybe your ownership contract contains similar clauses? Perhaps contact Shelter as they can represent people with housing problems.
Whatever you decide, I hope there's a positive result for you.

The reference to Shelter was not made for the EE but they (Shelter) should be able to give you advice, tell you what your rights are, what legal obligations are involved in your ownership agreement and make suggestions to hopefully, solve this problem.

Re: Our bin shed area being used as a public toilet!
Jazzi when younger I used to live in a Maisonette. We had a dustbinplace with a enclosed compartment for them like you mention.
We all had a key for the door to the place so only tenants could get
in and out and someone would leave it unlocked when they knew
the dustbin men were coming. If all the tenants agree to this it
could be the better way of dealing with the intruders spoiling your
dustbin area.
I would have thought the Police should be moving these people
on from the street, it is their job, I think.

Re: Our bin shed area being used as a public toilet!
Lindyloo, sorry I misinterpreted your post. When you mentioned Shelter I could only assume you meant for these people.I have heard from one of the Cllrs and he is going to talk to our local Sgt. I met him recently over the allotment: thoroughly nice bloke, as Tim nice but dim would say! Lol.
The neighbour who had the misfortune to be there has also tried to email all parties, and the Cllr has responded. She's not having any luck with the other people but it may be that she took down wrong email addys over the phone. I had to keep repeating myself. She has also written an A3 size note of the incident and posted it through every block.
In the meantime, I want some sleep then to get ready for tomorrow. Cobbles here I come...

The padlock disappeared, never to be seen again.
