Ladywood Neighbourhood Area designation

Today Birmingham City Council approved the Ladywood Neighbourhood Area designation application made by residents and workers in the Ladywood Regeneration Area.

More information is available here: https://www.birmingham.gov.uk/info/20054/local_plan_documents/299/neighbourhood_planning/2

This can be seen as good news because it is one of many steps towards a Neighbourhood Plan, which gives local people more power to decide what happens to them.

To join the forum, and get involved in the plan, email ladywoodunite@gmail.com. Thank you to everyone who has already joined and told the council we want a neighbourhood plan.

A reminder that Ladywood Unite CIC is looking for a part-time Community Organiser to work with residents affected by regeneration and potential demolition and displacement in Ladywood.

The role will involve supporting resident-led organising, community meetings, advocacy, communications, social media, capacity building and work on an alternative neighbourhood plan.

For any questions, please contact ladywoodunite@gmail.com.

    there is no information about what is staying or going from the council yet unfortunately as far as we are aware. this ‘area designation’ is one step in something called a ‘neighbourhood plan’. a neighbourhood plan helps residents to have more power and say about what happens to them. it helps them have more control rather than just the council and developers.
