Objectives

The Big Local initiative is about bringing together all the talents, passions, aspirations, skills and energy of individuals, groups and organisations to make their area an even better place to live and work.

Birchfield Big Local is one of just three Big Local areas in Birmingham and is an exciting opportunity for residents to use at least £1 million to make a lasting positive difference in their communities.

Activities

The main role of the Big Local Partnership is to make the decisions that are best for Birchfield Big Local and in line with the Birchfield Big Local plan which was agreed after extensive consultations with local people.

Another key role is building and strengthening relationships between the diverse individuals, groups, organisations and businesses within the Birchfield Big Local area. The partnership has a Chair, Vice-Chair, Treasurer and Secretary.

We do this by providing volunteer-led projects which includes an Elders Group, Women's Group, English Conversation Classes, Basic IT Sessions, Youth Work, community events and more.
