Working with you to improve Leicester’s environment
The City Wardens will help improve the environment of the city of Leicester by working with partners and local communities.
Objectives
The aims of this service are to:
- Improve the quality of the local environment,

- To provide a visible and approachable “on-the-street” reassuring presence and point of contact for the public.
Duties of the wardens
The wardens duties will cover a wide range of issues including; litter, graffiti, fly-posting, nuisance parking (vehicles for sale or being repaired on the highway), leaflet distribution, dog fouling, bins on streets, and waste duty of care. They will also observe and report any other issues relating to Leicester City Council Services.
The wardens will be dedicated to specific wards to help develop local knowledge and links with community and other local services.
