Balsall Heath Forum. Works to improve the services in Balsall Heath Birmingham. Capacity building for agencies working in regeneration. Neighbourhood management and partnership building.

The Balsall Heath Forum is a Company Limited by Guarantee. Every resident over 18 in Balsall Heath is eligible to become a member. There are 18 elected members of the executive, 12 residents and 6 from Voluntary Organisations. Only 4 residents and 2 Voluntary members stand down each year. So, there is continuity with just 1/3 being elected each year and all serve for a three year stint once elected. The Executive members are all Directors of the Company. They act as the voice of the urban village of Balsall Heath, set policy and employ a number of staff to deliver key local services and represent the village on a variety of committees and working groups. The general aim is to recover from the blight of the past, continually improve the quality of life of the neighbourhood, boost the spirit and pride of everyone, create one strong community from the many diverse cultures which live in the area and gain a good, new, attractive image.
