Published on

The Bloxwich Launchpad team is getting ready for the festive period and reflecting on a fantastic first few months since opening the doors at the beginning of September.

Bloxwich Launchpad offers a range of support services for local residents, and business support for small businesses and entrepreneurs. The newly refurbished building, which used to be the Bloxwich Post Office, now offers access to 16 public access computers, bookable desk spaces, co-working facilities, and high-spec computers with specialist software, all within a bright, modern and welcoming environment.

Since opening, Bloxwich Launchpad has supported over 360 people, with 250 attending courses and sessions to access specialist support. The centre has also welcomed over 40 entrepreneurs and small businesses who have used the business incubation facilities upstairs. 

“ It’s great to hear how many people have been through the door at Bloxwich Launchpad since it opened, and how many people and small businesses have been supported. The team offers fantastic support and services to the local community and I look forward to seeing it continue to thrive in 2026 and beyond! “

Councillor Adrian Andrew, Deputy Leader
Walsall Council

“ We’re thrilled to see so many local residents and businesses actively engaging with the Launchpad facilities and programs; your involvement is helping to build a vibrant, collaborative community where innovation and growth thrive. Come and join us in 2026 and start your journey with Launchpad! “

Jason Fisher, Centre Manager

One Launchpad user said “Without Bloxwich Launchpad, accessing these facilities and learning opportunities would have been far more costly and difficult to find.”

Walsall Council delivered the new digital skills hub in the heart of Bloxwich as part of the £21.3million Bloxwich Town Deal, with the building being designed, refurbished and extended by Speller Metcalfe and Atkins Realis.

Bloxwich Launchpad is located on Market Place in Bloxwich Town Centre and is open to the public Monday – Friday between 9am and 5pm, but will be closed for Christmas from Monday 22 December 2025 until Monday 5 January 2026.
