I really hope the businesses of Digbeth vote for this. It gives them a voice and funding to work with residents in shaping this important part of the city
Enjoying the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup England v Sri Lanka at Edgbaston.
Also enjoying the Birmingham skyline and the reminder of how green our city is.
I feel very lucky to live here.

For as long we can remember, residents and visitors have told us ‘Digbeth needs a BID’. After much hard work by a brilliant BID team, the time is here and ballots will be going out soon. To those that have a vote, we say ‘VOTE YES!’

6 of us “took the stage” at Cannon Hill parkrun yesterday to ~800 people ahead of #CleanAirDay, encouraging walking, cycling, wheeling & public transport to cut Brum air pollution.
3 of us are medics & 4 are breast cancer survivors, so it’s a message close to our hearts 💚
