We Are Walsall 2040 roadshows return
Published on
The We Are Walsall 2040 Roadshow will hit the road again this February following a successful launch last year.
The roadshow has already made 10 visits across the borough, with the aim of providing information and gathering feedback on our long-term vision for the future of Walsall.
Invaluable views were heard throughout the initial dates, with key areas of discussion raised including crime, leisure, culture and littering.
During the first set of visits, the We Are Walsall 2040 team travelled around the borough, stopping at key locations including Pelsall, Aldridge, Walsall’s Knife Angel event and Walsall Football Club.
All residents are encouraged to attend one of the roadshows to learn more about the vision and to have their views heard as part of the collaborative approach which runs through We Are Walsall 2040.

“ As promised, we are returning with the We Are Walsall 2040 Roadshow to make sure we visit areas we weren’t able to in December.
We were pleased with the response for the first set of visits and feel as though we were able to connect with residents and partners to hear their views.
This initiative marks a pivotal moment for our borough, and we want residents to be active contributors to the vision that will shape Walsall's future.
I encourage anyone to join us on at one of the roadshows as we continue this exciting journey to achieve this vision of Walsall in 2040. “
