Acocks Green Neighbourhood Forum

On Friday 11th September between 10am to 11.30 in Acocks Green Library there will be a session of advice for those interested in studying family history, including using computers and other resources for research purposes. This is one of an-going series of sessions. For more information call into the library or give them a ring. (Contact details on ‘Useful Links’ on right hand side of page).

Hopefully locals have noticed the extra floral colour in beds and planters these last two years.  These improvements are thanks to the Town Centre Manager – Melinda Brown and a band of volunteers who have helped with planting and general gardening. 

This Thursday  – 27th August there will be a quick one hour weeding and tidying session of parts of the Green. Would you like to come along to join in or perhaps be part of the crew for future planting/weeding sessions?  Meet outside the library at 6pm this Thursday.  No gardening experience is required and whatever help you can provide is appreciated.  All you need to bring is some gardening gloves and enthusiasm!  Or contact us if you would like to help in the future.

Local people are invited along to meet the local Neighbourhood Police with any issues or concerns. It takes place in the Stockfield Association Resource Room, 2a Alexander Road.

You can also contact the team by email:
