The Ladywood Estate Regeneration Newsletter
The recent drop-in surgeries we have hosted to help people complete our Resident & Community Charter survey have been a success, so we are rolling out more over the next few weeks. Read more below to find out when and where.
The community in Ladywood has told us how useful it would be to hold a fortnightly drop-in session for residents to come and talk about anything regarding the regeneration. We plan to do this and will share details soon.
Once again, it's vital for you to have your say and get involved. Please complete the Resident & Community Charter survey if you have not done so already, and encourage others to do so.
More surgeries to help people complete the Resident & Community Charter survey
Many people have been attending our surgeries to complete our Resident & Community Charter survey with success. If you attended, thank you.
As a result, we have now put on more surgeries for people to attend.
Residents can still complete the survey online, but for those who may need some assistance to complete the survey, we are arranging more surgeries where they can be completed in person.
What you tell us will help us develop the Resident & Community Charter, which will set out Birmingham City Council's offer and commitments to residents to ensure the community is treated fairly.
Make sure to let your neighbours, friends and relatives know about these surgeries if you think they would like to attend.
Please note that the aim of these surgeries is to help people complete the survey. The people who deliver the surgeries won't be able to answer general questions about regeneration.
Do I have to book to attend a surgery?
No booking is required. To attend one of these surgeries, all you have to do is turn up.
We have been told by many people within the community that they want to be able to attend surgeries or workshops like this without having to book. We have listened to your feedback, and these sessions will not require you to book in advance.
We will do our utmost to ensure everyone can be accommodated. However, as the surgeries are not prebooked, we cannot guarantee entry beyond capacity. For this reason, you may have to wait or attempt to join another surgery. We have designed the sessions to allow us to help as many people as possible.

Mobile Household Recycling Centre coming to Ladywood
One of Birmingham City Council's Mobile Household Recycling Centres will be visiting Ladywood soon.

Our website has more information about our Mobile Household Recycling Centres including what you can and cannot bring.
What is Reset, Reshape, Restart?
Birmingham City Council has severe financial challenges which it must face and difficult decisions need to be taken. The council needs to Reset, Reshape and Restart.
A programme of improvement and change has now commenced. The first phase of this is to reset the council finances, as well as our services and how they are delivered.
We will then need to reshape our services. To do this, we will need your help. We want to hear your views about our services, what matters to you, and decide what we will have to change.
We will then put these decisions into action, to restart the council, putting the council on a footing that will benefit the city and its citizens for the long term.
