Free Dr Bike happening tomorrow at the Oak Park Active Living Centre.

If you have an old bike you want to get back into use again, bring it along between 1pm and 4pm on Saturday, for a free bike safety check and minor repairs.

You can try and pre book a slot or simply turn up during the time as hope they can fit you in. Pop inside and have a coffee while you wait. Future dates will be happening across all four Walsall Leisure centres.

The weekend is almost here, and we can’t wait to see you tomorrow morning!

Join us this Saturday, 30th May, for our monthly coffee morning. It's a safe space built by and for the care-experienced community, and we have a very special morning planned.

Our lovely Layla will be leading a 'fun fishing' craft session where the children can get creative making their very own colourful jellyfish. It’s set to be a wonderful, creative start to the weekend for the little ones.

While the children are busy with their crafts, we invite parents and carers to take a moment for themselves. Our dedicated quiet space will be open, where you can have a gentle chat with our care-experienced counsellors who truly understand your journey. Whether you need a listening ear or just a bit of peace with a warm drink, we’re here for you.

Come along and learn all the things which are integral for you to enjoy your new family life.

We’ll see you tomorrow from 10am!

During this period of hot weather, individuals experiencing homelessness face an increased risk of heat-related illnesses because they often lack shelter, as well as consistent access to showers and drinking water.

The Rough Sleepers Team have been completing outreach work, identifying homeless individuals and providing water, sunscreen, guidance, and shelter as needed during the current hot weather.

💬 If you're concerned about someone sleeping rough in Walsall, please help us reach them:
