Birmingham City Council (BCC) has launched a Local Innovation Fund (LIF). It will make £48,000 available to each electoral ward in the city. The money is intended to fund projects ‘that focus on partnership, collaboration, active citizenship and doing things differently’.

The Moseley and Kings Heath Community Partnership is holding a meeting at 7pm on Tuesday 13 December 2016 to discuss the fund and the ways in which it might be applied in Moseley and Kings Heath.

If you have thoughts on how £48,000 could be used to the benefit of local residents, please come to the meeting.

Date: Tuesday, 13 December 2016
Time: 7pm
Venue: The Moseley Exchange, 149-153 Alcester Road, B13 8JP

Kings Heath High Street design proposals public meeting

Achim JungLeave a comment

DIY Streets Kings Heath and Kings Heath Residents’ Forum are co-hosting an open presentation and feedback evening on the proposals to make the High Street safer and more attractive for everyone who uses it.

The meeting takes place on Tuesday, 10 February 2015 from 6:30pm–8:00pm at:

Kings Heath Community Centre
8 Heathfield Road, Kings Heath B14 7DB

This open, public meeting is for anyone who is interested in the High Street design proposals – all are welcome to attend and you don’t need to be a resident in Kings Heath.

Come along to hear about the current plans, meet the project team, ask questions and give your feedback on the designs.

The final design suggestions will be handed over to Birmingham City Council in mid-February, who will look at specifics such as traffic modelling and a safety audit. The designs will then go through the Council’s formal consultation and approval process.
