Bordesley green is a calm and very diverse local with a great mixture of religion, beliefs and morals integrated. I enjoy the peace and safety that it offers towards the community and the many active centres that are open to the public, such as the Saltely wellbeing centre. However, not many individuals take head on hygiene and health and safety as litter can be found distributed along the main Bordesley green road. Working in Bordesley green is great because it means you are not too far from the main city centre and public transport is frequent. In general, it is a friendly and warm place to .ive with everyone respecting each other's privacy.

Deciphering Crime Rates - a Deep Dive Into UK Postcode Analysis
Ever wondered about the crime rate in your UK postcode? You're not alone. We've dug deep into the data, uncovering trends and patterns that'll make your head spin.
Death of the High Street?
The BBC reports that despite councils' attempts to kurb them, the UK's high streets have seen a huge growth in fast food outlets. Could this mark the death knell for the Great British high street, and what can we do about it to halt its decline?
Discrimination by Postcode
You really couldn't make it up, could you? Some of the country's most vulnerable people are missing out on their weekly £25 Cold Weather Payment, just because the system that's in operation is discriminating against them because payments are based on postcode, rather than geographic location.
The Redesign is Underway
Well, the current website was absolutely in dire need of a good redesign - from the ground up. So I set out to pull it all apart and get it up and running again to become the most comprehensive guide to every postcode in the UK. And it's been a long, tough job from start to finish - and quite possibly the biggest project I've ever undertaken.
