Bank Holiday Acocks Green Puzzle

Posted on April 3, 2026 by Kit Barlow

This was compiled for the quiz for the sell out and successful Village in Bloom’s Bloomin’ Good Night last week. A bit of fun, and a way to test your knowledge of Acocks Green. It got people pondering long and hard. When we walk down the road we often don’t look up at shop signs. How many can you recognise?!

Stone Hall, Acocks Green – Hope for a Positive Future

Posted on January 9, 2026 by Kit Barlow

Lots of people were saddened to see the closure of our local Adult Education Centre in the summer.

Disability Resource Centre is a long established Birmingham charity who has plans to work in partnership with other Acocks Green–based organisations to explore the opportunity of acquiring the former Birmingham City Council–owned Adult Education Centre for the benefit of the community.

Stone Hall, Acocks Green

As part of this work, they are running a short community survey to gather local views and help shape future plans for the building. Please be part of this feedback which will help to support a really positive outcome for this grand old building in our village.

There are two versions of the form to choose from, whichever works best for you.
