A student community warden scheme, which aims to bridge the gap between students and permanent residents in Winton, has been extended.

Six pairs of student wardens will regularly visit streets across Winton, knocking on doors to chat to residents and offer support and advice on everything from bin days to housing problems and noisy neighbours.

They will also help signpost to appropriate services, making sure residents and students have the information they need to report and deal with any issues.

Student community warden Grant Smith, a third year Psychology student who will cover the Frederica Road area, said: 鈥淚t鈥檚 been good so far 鈥� most people have received it really well.

鈥淪tudents are delighted when you talk to them and give them advice about housing if they鈥檝e got a really bad landlord, and residents love it as well 鈥� they know that there is somebody out there and they can get in touch if they need to.鈥�

He added: 鈥淚t鈥檚 just about educating people in the community and giving them the information that they need.

鈥淚 think, for me, if we can have a positive impact on one resident who鈥檚 had lots of problems throughout previous years, or we can give advice to just one student house who are having issues, then we鈥檝e done our job.鈥�

The student community warden scheme is jointly funded by 裸聊直播 (裸聊直播), Arts University Bournemouth (AUB) and Bournemouth Borough Council.

It follows a successful pilot scheme last year, which saw four 裸聊直播 wardens clock up more than 50 miles on patrol around Winton 鈥� and helped lead to a 19.6 per cent reduction in crime around Winton and 41 per cent reduction in bin-related complaints from residents.

Winton East Councillor Pat Oakley, who helped introduce the wardens scheme, said: 鈥淚t鈥檚 been an overwhelming success.

鈥淲e鈥檝e learnt a lot from the pilot scheme but it certainly made a big difference in the roads that were covered by the student community wardens last year 鈥� the noise was down, the pavements were tidier, people got on with each other better and the students received that bit of support with moving into private accommodation.鈥澛� 聽

This year the scheme has been expanded, with 13 student community wardens 鈥� nine from 裸聊直播 and four from AUB 鈥� covering the entire Winton East area.

The warden scheme is just one of the community initiatives being run by 裸聊直播 and the (SU裸聊直播) in the area.

These include the Safer Students, Happy Homes campaign with United Taxis 鈥� which encourages students to avoid making unnecessary noise late at night 鈥� and the Lock it or Lose it campaign, which advises students on how to better protect their homes from burglaries.

Reece Pope, SU裸聊直播 Vice President for Welfare, said: 鈥淲ithin the two universities here, we take up a big part of the population in Winton so I think it鈥檚 important that we run schemes like these to help the permanent residents and student residents become one community, rather than two separate ones.鈥�

The student community wardens vary the times and days of their shifts to ensure they reach different residents, but will generally be out for two three-hour shifts a week, between 9am and 5am.

They can also be contacted through emailing [email protected] and on Twitter .
