Residents, community groups and businesses in Smethwick are being urged to take part in an important online survey to help shape the town’s future.
Smethwick is set to receive up to £20 million in government funding through the Plan for Neighbourhoods – a 10-year investment programme that will support local communities and drive positive change across the town.
The Smethwick Partnership Board, which is overseeing the delivery of this ambitious programme, has launched a short survey to understand what matters most to local people. Feedback from the survey will help identify key priorities for the town and guide how funding is used to deliver improvements across Smethwick.
The survey invites individuals and organisations in Smethwick to share their views on eight key themes:
- Regeneration, high streets and heritage
- Housing
- Work, productivity and skills
- Community cohesion
- Health and wellbeing
- Transport
- Safety and security
- Education and opportunity
Whether you’re a resident, a local business or a community group, your voice is vital. Completing the survey takes just a few minutes and your input could help shape the town for years to come.

The Plan forms a key part of the Sandwell Story – a project to get people in our borough to think about what it means to ‘make it’ in their lives. Take a look at the inspiring video here.
The survey closes on Friday 22 August 2025.
