Often, little things can make a big difference to people’s quality of life, while anti-social behaviour and nuisance neighbours can make life a misery.

“Stourbridge in Bloom” has been a great success in recent years, thanks to the work of local volunteers, supported by the Council.

Schemes like “Play Pathfinder” and “Healthy Towns Hubs” have meant new equipment in many local parks. We will continue to support our parks and “Friends of the Park” groups.

The Council is working with the Police to crack down on crime and problem families. Stourbridge’s alcoholfree zone has been extended and action taken to hold parents responsible for their children’s actions.

  • Keep weekly bin bag collections and increase the amount that is recycled locally
  • Crack down on fly-tipping and litter
  • Deal with derelict sites and alleyways that attract anti-social behaviour
