West Midlands Accountability Assembly 2024

On the evening of Thursday 25th April, amidst celebrating our diversity with powerful testimonies, communities from across our membership will come together to put specific asks on our priorities for Housing and Work to Andy Street (Conservative candidate for Mayor of the West Midlands) and Richard Parker (Labour candidate for Mayor of the West Midlands) and on Safety to Simon Foster (Labour candidate for West Midlands Police & Crime Commissioner).

Read our priorities on Housing here: Birmingham Citizens Manifesto - Housing Campaign 2024 + Key Issues - Housing Campaign Jan 24

Read our priorities on Work here: Birmingham Citizens Manifesto - Work Campaign 2024

Read our priorities on Safety here: Birmingham Citizens Manifesto - Safety Campaign 2024

This is not a public hustings event. Please see our basis for candidate invitations here: Basis for Candidate Invitations 2024 updated 09 April

We will publish written responses to our priorities received by all candidates on our website as well as email them out to everyone on our mailing list.

Our priorities have been developed by our membership over the course of the past 18 months through listening events, workshops and local action. We are seeking a 2-way accountable & positive relationship with whoever is elected into office on the 2nd of May to deliver on them.

If you are from a member organisation or have been sent a specific invitation as a guest, join us then for what will be a moving evening of communities acting together for the common good and social justice.
