7th May is local election day, you live in Balsal Heath it’ll either be Balsall Heath West (One Councillor from seven candidates) or Sparkbrook and Balsall Heath East (Two Councillors from fourteen candidates). Unless you happen to meet one of them or get a flyer through your door it can be hard to know what they look like or what they stand for, so we’ve done our best to find out what we can.

We want your questions

We’re putting together questions and will publish responses in your Heathan, so please forward by 23rd April for inclusion – we will publish all the responses from candidates we recieve by 28th April. We’ll summarise questions for candidates – if you want to ask a direct question of candidates, you’ll find links below each candidate to contact them and ask your question directly.
