Entry to a noise action week poster competition for childrenOn these pages we list some inspiring Noise Action Week events – the ones that organisers told us about. We know from press overage and Twitter feeds that more takes place – and encourage everyone taking part to let us know about activity – so that we can help with promotions – and measure the impact of the week.

On our regional events  pages you will see some of the inspiring work carried out by Noise Action Week supporters – ranging from visits to tenants to commuinty events and online awareness raising. Below are just a few examples of activity from previous years that we hope will encourage you take take part in raising awareness of anti social noise problems and solutions for this years’ Noise Action Week – May 22nd – 28th.
