Graffiti in our communal housing spaces – guidance for council tenants

Graffiti is a criminal offence and can be reported to the police – however they will not remove it.

If you notice graffiti on one of our properties or in a communal housing space, such as a communal garden, please report this to us: neighbourhoodasb@centralbedfordshire.gov.uk. Please attach a photo and clear location instructions.

If the graffiti is racist or abusive, we will aim to remove this within 1 working day. All other graffiti removal may take up to 4 weeks.

If the graffiti is in a public space, eg on the street, please report this via FixMyStreet.

If the graffiti is abusive towards you or your family, this could count as harassment.
