Noise Action Week 2012
Noise Action Week is an annual initiative which aims to focus public attention on the problems of excessive noise. Everyone can take part, local housing authorities, mediation services, schools, youth groups and individuals, basically anyone who has ever been involved in issues surrounding excessive noise.
There are a number of themes that the organisers wish to address including:
Premises Noise

Avoid The Boot – Use Acoustic Supplies
Noisy neighbours have unfortunately become prevalent throughout the country. There are very few neighbourhoods where you will find peace and harmony between homeowners, in many cases it will be the exact opposite. As a result, noise-related complaints are on the rise, with various local authorities left overwhelmed with complaints from neighbours.
What many people fail to take into consideration when they become a property owner is the fact that they have a duty to respect the privacy of those who live around and nearby them. We rely on our homes to provide us with a peaceful and tranquil setting where we can get away from things, not somewhere we expect to be disrupted by arguments, TV’s and Hi-Fi’s.
Those who show a blatant disregard for…
