Local businesses, Community leaders and community group members in Smethwick are being invited to help shape how £20 million in government funding is invested in the town over the next 10 years.
Smethwick is one of 75 towns across the UK set to benefit from long-term investment through the Plan for Neighbourhoods programme. This funding aims to support local priorities, deliver meaningful change and put decision-making in the hands of communities.
Join a community workshop near you
To ensure local voices are at the heart of the programme, a series of eight community workshops will take place across Smethwick between Monday 28 July and Friday 22 August 2025.
Each session will provide an opportunity to:
- Meet members of the Smethwick Partnership Board
- Discuss the challenges and opportunities in your community
- Share ideas and suggest potential projects
- Help shape how the funding can be used to make the biggest impact
Whether you’re already involved in local initiatives or simply want to see change in your neighbourhood, your input is essential.
Tickets to the workshops are free but limited, and will be allocated on a first come, first served basis.
