A council housing block in Slough, Berkshire, has been targeted by squatters in a series of ongoing break-ins, according to an article published on 27 May 2025. The BBC reports that squatters have repeatedly gained unauthorized entry to the residential building.
Council housing remains vulnerable to such intrusions, particularly when units are vacant or properties lack robust security measures. Residents and property managers are advised to ensure that all entry points are properly secured, including doors, windows, and any external access points. Regular inspections can help identify vulnerabilities before they are exploited. If break-ins occur, immediate reporting to local police and council authorities is essential for documenting incidents and protecting residents’ safety.
