Community litter picking project which looks to bring together our residential and business communities. We aim to run weekly cleans which will improve the cleanliness of Southside.
Our community litter picking project aims to maximise the potential of clean-ups through broad engagement with the local community (residential and business). Our team works within Bordesley & Highgate to keep the busy Southside District area safe and clean. The aim is to influence behaviour change through boosting local community spirit, educating locals on litter pollution, empowering local people to take pride in their area and play a part in preventing and reducing littering through clean-ups and flytipping removal. We propose to undertake weekly cleans every Sunday and require £14,381 to get this project off the ground. The money will be used to purchase kit and equipment, design and print of marketing / promotional material, and to pay for wardens (x2) who will coordinate and run sessions as well as a trained professional street cleaner who will be responsible for picking and disposal of used hypodermic needles and other paraphernalia not safe for the general public to handle.

Southside District isn’t called the cultural heart of Birmingham without reason. It’s theatre and cinema, it’s drinking and dancing, it’s sizzling Szechuan and classic Cantonese. And behind the scenes of these unique and vibrant businesses is the dedicated Southside District BID team, there to support in good times and bad in dozens of different ways. BID stands for Business Improvement District; a not-for-profit, elected organisation in place to deliver what the title suggests. Stretching from the steps of New Street Station, along Bristol Street and around the impressive new Smithfield development, the BID team drives footfall to the area, works with the hundreds of businesses that call the district home, keeps the area safe and clean, as well as lobbying the city council and much, much more. But the BID is ultimately put in place by the people it serves. Every five years, businesses reflect on everything that the team has achieved, then vote yes or no to another term.
