I think this is going to be an event not to miss if you care about Lozells and want to have a say in its future.  The conference is being called by Councillor Waseem Zaffar.  He has plans to bring together all the active citizens in Lozells to address situations no longer taken care of by the local authority because of the cuts. His idea is to set up 5 Neighbourhood Forums. Secondly he wants to bring people together to talk about local affairs under 8 headings – Community Safety, Health, Women, Children and Young People, Housing and the Environment, Employment and Business, and Voluntary and Community groups.

The conference is at City College on the Soho Rd : 10.30-2pm. Call Raj Rattu on 07515 531 272 to register or email him at rajinder@neighbourhoodconsultancy.co.uk

I have just heard about a group which meets every Thursday morning for a fantastic, healthy walk around Lozells. Its for women and children who want to walk and meet new people. They start at 9.30 amd are done by 10.39. Why don’t you join them ? Just turn up at the main entrance to Georges Park on Wills St at 9.30 on Thursdays. Write us a comment to let others know what it is like. If you want further information drop me a line at the Neighbpoourhood Forum. gl@gillian-lloyd.com
