5th October 2021 - Discovery of 'Shed with Bed' in Bracknell

Discovery of 'Shed with Bed' in Bracknell.

Our officers were disturbed to find someone living in a shed, with cardboard used for insulation, during a recent routine inspection of a restaurant in Bracknell.
The officers have now worked to ensure that the shed was taken out of use for habitation and worked with the restaurant owner to ensure improvements in workers’ on-site accommodation. Other colleagues from Compliance and Programme (Food), Trading Standards, and the Fire Service were also involved in securing necessary improvements at the premises.
The Public Protection Partnership has a range of services and functions relating to housing, supporting landlords and tenants in ensuring properties and living conditions within our area meet minimum standards.
