My mum is having problems with her neighbour.This has been going on for 5 years or more,Everytime my mum is outside,he stares.she has put up with it for all this time. Today she flipped and Shouted at him,he denyed all knowledge of winding her up. Is there anything legally she can do?She has been to the council and reported him,they said he was just an old man who had lost him wife(this happened 4 years ago). My mu is now worried that this mans son is going to cause damage to her property. Any advice gratefully recieved. BB xx |

She could go to the Cab to find out her rights, Love to your mum, this is a horrid situation to find herself in, it would be easier if hed said something as she may have been able to do something about a breach of the peace, Good luck, caz xxxxxxxx |

This is a difficult one for her. I have heard that if you have problem neighbours, you can present photographic or video evidence of threatening behaviour, or damage to property, to the police. They should then follow it up. But if he hasn't done anything like that, even though he is still intimidating her, I'm not sure what anyone can do. If he is struggling to cope after the death of his wife, would Social services be any use? Do you have any Community Officers in your area, who could have a word with him? Hope your Mum gets it sorted out soon Sharon xx |

Has your Mum got a camcorder? She could set it up to record his actions..... |

All good advice been given here. Must be worrying for your mum. You don't say what he was like before he lost his wife. Did mum encounter any problems with him before then. If not then maybe he is very lonely and just doesn't realise the upset he is causing or how intimidating his actions are. Aileen xx |
