Streetpride

Streetpride's Aim

Streetpride maintains over 1,100 kilometres of highways in a clean and safe condition for pedestrians, motorists, other road users and local communities.

Our aim is: “To work with the community to maintain and improve the street scene to a standard which will promote civic pride and community responsibility.”

Streetpride is integral to the Council's corporate plan priorities of Safe, Alive, Achieving, Proud and Learning.

Streetpride's Visions To look after the environment to help Rotherham become a better place to live, learn and work. To tackle crime and disorder by drawing on the 'eyes and ears' of Streetpride staff. To encourage community involvement through the Area Assemblies, Streetpride champions, community clear-ups and area based working. To ensure easy recognition of Streetpride staff by our distinctive logo on uniforms and vehicles. For all our staff to become ambassadors for Rotherham.

Beacon Award for Better Public Places 2008



In March 2008, the Council received a Beacon Award for Better Public Places, one of only 5 councils in the country to receive this award. Rotherham's unique and innovative Streetpride initiative has transformed the quality of public places and improved perceptions of the borough.

The Streetpride initiative cuts across the traditional departmental structure to co-ordinate and deliver all the services that affect the quality of public places. Key points include participatory budgeting, community clean-ups, Streetpride champions, imaginative campaigns, performance response timescales and the pro–active use of public places.
