Elmbridge wins at the British Noise Oscars

The annual awards, dubbed the “Noise Oscars”, are hosted by the Noise Abatement Society and Elmbridge collected the local government award for its out of hours enforcement service run in partnership with Surrey Police. The service is in its second year and is conducted during the summer months (April – September) dealing with noise, alcohol and taxi licensing issues. The service was judged a great success, combining innovation with partnership working as well as offering great customer service. The John Connell Awards recognise organisations and individuals for their outstanding efforts to reduce the impact of noise nuisance and pioneer practical and innovative solutions to noise pollution.
