Rowley Regis residents have been asked to pick the brains of local cops and council officers at the next Neighbourhood Forum.

Crime, anti-social behaviour and environmental concerns will be at the top of the agenda at the neighbourhood forum meeting on Thursday, May 31.

A spokesman for Sandwell Council said: “They are a chance for people to bring concerns about their area to the attention of the council's neighbourhood managers, police and other partner organisations.

“This is so that action can then be taken to tackle the problem.”

The forum will take place at Brickhouse Primary School, Dudhill, Rowley Regis at 6.30pm on May 31.

The Rowley Neighbourhood Walkabout will take place on Friday 1 June, starting outside Brickhouse Primary School, at 10am.
