About Us

Although Solihull is one of the richest boroughs in the country, it also has some of the greatest levels of inequality. Too many people scrape by on poverty wages; too many of our young people have to leave Solihull to find affordable housing. Public services have been in decline. Many of our elderly are isolated and lonely. Solihull deserves better.

The way that communities are rallying to support each other during the Covid-19 crisis shows that many people agree that there is a need for #FairDealSolihull and that we must rebuild in a way that puts people and communities before profit. If you agree, please get involved in our campaigns and activities.

SAY NO TO COVID-DENIERS – GET YOUR COVID JAB AND FOLLOW RESTRICTIONS

This weekend saw Covid-deniers distributing leaflets in Kingshurst containing false information about the impact of Covid. Councillor Flo Nash said:

‘The falsehoods contained in this leaflet could put our fight against Covid at real risk. That would be wrong anywhere but to distribute such nonsense, here in Kingshurst where we have some of the highest infection rates, is putting lives at risk.’
Flo continues: ‘My message is simple: Ignore the Covid-deniers; continue to follow the rules designed to stop the spread; and when offered, do make sure you get vaccinated. We all want our lives and businesses to get back to normal as soon as possible. But make no mistake, if we don’t control the virus now, there is a danger of further spikes and that would lead to further restrictions’.
Kingshurst & Fordbridge Councillors have alerted Solihull’s Director of Public Health who will be concerned to see this development, at a time when we are experiencing a local spike in infections.
