Community Wardens

Chester's Community Safety Wardens are a Chester City Council Service created to tackle anti-social behaviour and improve your environment.

The Community Safety Wardens provide a highly visible patrolling presence throughout the Chester District and by acting as the eyes and ears of the community will enhance safety and deter criminal activity.

The Community Safety Wardens are not Police Officers but do complement the work of other agencies and are supported by all lead agencies throughout Chester.  The Wardens are able to deal with local concerns like littering and anti social behaviour and when appropriate are able to use their enforcement powers by issuing fixed penalty notices to offenders.

Community Safety Wardens are not just about crime and anti-social behaviour, you can approach the Wardens about anything that affects your quality of life.

The Wardens offer a friendly face to talk to about any concerns you may have.  Sometimes members of the community, for different reasons find it difficult to approach the Local Council or Police.  Every community has people that find it difficult to speak up for themselves and whose life may become miserable because of that.  The Wardens are happy to speak to the authorities on your behalf.

Remember! Community Safety Wardens are there to work with you and represent your concerns.  Speak to your Warden, they will endeavour to get things moving with whoever is responsible to improve things.
