Birchfield Neighbourhood Management Boards inaugural meeting at Cmat Building

Posted on 9th October 2009 by Kasper Sorenson

We have corrected this information: The following is wrong: This is an open forum where members of the Perry Barr ward can air thier views and concerns with local councillors.

Mike Davis, the Constituency Director, has clarified what is going on:

Birchfield Neighbourhood Management inaugaral meeting – tonight is for the Lozells & East Handsworth Ward (not Perry Barr Ward).

The Neighbourhood Board is a by invitation meeting although if we
had one of two observers that would not be a problem. It gives key local community representatives the opportunity to work closely with Service Providers and influence local
service provision. There will probably be one or two councillors in
attendance but its not an opportunity for the general public to air
personal issues or concerns.

Constituency: Perry Barr
When: Thu, 15 October, 18:30 – 20:00
Where: 16 Grosvenor Rd, Handsworth, Birmingham, West Midlands B20, UK
Open to the general public: Invitation only
Contact: Yvonne Wager 0121 675 1731
