The police worked with the NHS outreach teams to help tackle the problem. Residents urged to provide information via 101 or the web chat. − Sgt Sandhu undertook to report back to the appropriate teams on issues raised regarding anti-social behaviour around the Reservoir − With regard bail hostels on Portland Road/Hagley Road there was only one authorised bail hostel in Edgbaston and it was well managed. Others were often hotels that were run as hostels. Councillor Rice pointed out that the new North Edgbaston ward was policed by neighbourhood teams from Edgbaston, Harborne, Ladywood & Soho but he was working to seek a re-alignment of the police boundaries with the city council. He undertook to meet regularly with Sgt Sandhu and work more collaboratively. 2. a) Houses in Multiple Occupation & Licensing Scheme Matt Smith made the following points; − An HMO was a property where any number of individuals lived not as a single household. − There was one licensing scheme which was mandatory for properties housing 5 or more tenants − If there were 4 or fewer tenants living in a property, a licence was not required. This was not dependant on the height of the building. − There were rules and regulations that applied to landlords eg fire safety and landlords could be prosecuted − A property run by a registered provider did not need a licence under the mandatory scheme and could not be fined under the legislation. − The North Edgbaston area had a high number of HMO’s − The Private Rented Team could only deal with properties under the legislation − Tenants with any issues regarding the property they lived in or their landlord should contact the team at [email protected] In response to residents questions the meeting was advised; − Selective licensing was being considered for all PRS properties & an announcement was due shortly FINAL, ND-C, ver 3 − Planning legislation related to properties with 6 or more people living there. − There was a list of registered HMO’s on the Council’s website − Consultation on Be Heard – Development Management in Birmingham – was also consulting on HMO’s in planning terms − Details of a property on Heath Green Road to be provided to Matt Smith at conclusion of meeting b) Empty Properties Matt Smith asked residents to advise [email protected] of any privately rented properties that had been left empty so that steps could be taken to get them back into use. Return to use took some time but there were powers that could be used to tidy gardens, replace doors and secure etc. 3. Reservoir Master Plan Craig Rowbottom advised the formal consultation was due shortly. Partners were involved, councillors had been briefed but the communities response to the consultation was required to influence the draft. Residents commented on issues around the use of the car park for drug dealing and other anti-social behaviour and the effect on the amenity for family use. The upgrade of paths for cycling and the future of the Tower Ballroom were also questioned. Councillor Rice said that the Master Plan would be considered in more detail at the ward meeting in May and that together with the police a strategy would be put in place before the summer to combat anti-social behaviour. Residents commented that the Reservoir was linked to the Icknield Port Loop development that was progressing fast and action was needed to ensure the reservoir was not left behind. The Master Plan needed to be brought to the community in view of the importance of the Reservoir as a community asset to so many people through events/stands etc as not all belonged to groups etc. 4. Community Clean-Ups Information and contact details provided for local clean-ups for those wanting to get involved along with advise from the Waste Reduction Unit. Anyone wanting to take part in the Harborne Walkway litter pick to contact Councillor Rice for details. Councillor Rice provided an update on the current situation with the bin strike. At the suggestion of residents he undertook to suggest to FINAL, ND-C, ver 3 the Cabinet Member that adverts be placed in local newspapers re advice on collections as there was considerable confusion. c) Carisbrook Road Residents Group – Kulbinder advised that residents from Carisbrook Road had organised themselves into a residents group in response to the amount of crime affecting the road including drug dealing, prostitution, car crime & burglaries. There were a number of properties on the road that operated as hostels and this had a detrimental effect on the road. Residents were extremely concerned for their safety, especially as women and young girls were being approached by men looking for prostitutes. Help and support was sought from the police as it was felt that the issues were not being seen as real. Councillor Rice gave an undertaking to meet with the group.

The Prevention and Communities (P&C) Commissioning Team are promoting the fantastic, and wide ranging, work happening all over Birmingham.

Adult Social Care’s Prevention First Vision is about supporting people to lead, “happy, independent lives in their own homes and communities.” Adult Social Care has been changing how we work, taking more time to listen and understand what a good life looks like for people. We are connecting them to the support they need in their community before looking at traditional forms of care. This is known as the Three Conversations approach. To ensure there is community-based support people need and want, our commissioning team have been investing in organisations that can deliver or develop this. Our focus is on support that can improve wellbeing and independence by: reducing isolation, increasing opportunities to be active, maximising income, helping to maintain homes and supporting carers.

Areas for further study Appendix 1: Figures and Maps (reproduced as a separate A3 Appendix) 3 1.0 Introduction Introduction 1.1 This report has been prepared at the request of Birmingham City Council, (BCC) and the Friends of Chamberlain Gardens, to provide a foundation for a Landscape Masterplan for Chamberlain Gardens in the Ladywood District of Birmingham. 1.2 As with all public spaces understanding the history of its development over time can help shape and influence and interpret proposals for its future management. This report, which in effect is a summary document aimed at kick starting the process of rejuvenation and renewal, aims to provide an understanding of the key events that have made Chamberlain Gardens what it is today, a well-used and attractive local public open space. 1.3 In so doing we are indebted to the support and information provided by the Friends of Chamberlain Gardens notably Norman Bartlam, a local historian, who has provided us with a range of historic material. 1.4 The report is divided into a number of sections commencing with a historic chronology, illustrated by newspaper articles of the times, assessing the distribution of trees which are so important as they are often a physical legacy of previous stages in a site’s development over time and then a section on ideas and themes which can be incorporated into a landscape masterplan for the gardens.

  • Addressing Women's Poverty in Birmingham
    Addressing Women’s Poverty in Birmingham: Local Labour Market Initiatives Karen Escott Christopher Price Lisa Buckner Gender and Employment Labour Markets in Employment Local and Gender Centre for Social Inclusion Sheffield Hallam University ii Foreword As Cabinet Member for Equalities and Human Resources for Birmingham City Council, equality of opportunity is at the heart of my vision for Birmingham, which means to ensure that all men and women have access to employment opportunities. This is achieved through fair recruitment processes and opportunities for both men and women to develop their careers. As one of the largest employers in the city, carrying out such an approach not only achieves fairness and improves morale but also results in better quality service delivery to the benefit of both employees and the communities they serve. Over the last three years, Birmingham City Council, the largest local authority within the GELLM partnership, has worked closely with Sheffield Hallam University to undertake an important piece of research into Gender and Employment in Local Labour Markets (GELLM). Following the successful launch of the Gender Profile of Birmingham’s Labour Market last spring, I am now pleased to launch the three follow-up studies that have been carried out in Birmingham: • Challenges in Meeting Demand for Domiciliary Care in Birmingham • Connecting Women with the Labour Market in Birmingham • Addressing Women’s Poverty in Birmingham: Local Labour Market Initiatives. These three studies have identified the aspirations of local women, what opportunities are available to them, and what constraints hold them back. The wider GELLM research programme has also explored some of the factors leading women to accept low-paid work and part-time work, and has examined how local employers’ recruitment strategies have affected certain groups of women.
