Birmingham
About the chapter
Birmingham is Europe's youngest city, with a history of leading the world in the industrial revolution. Home to world-class universities, cutting-edge industry, and a bustling city centre. At the centre of the UK's transportation network, we believe the city can be a national engine of growth, driving industry, employment, and prosperity for the whole country.
LFG Birmingham exists to accelerate our city towards its potential. We're here to make the case for rapid, sustainable growth, pushing our local council and civic leaders to help us build the city we know it could be. We should make headlines for our achievements, not our bins. Through building more infrastructure, more homes and more opportunity. We believe the region can lead as it has before and we're committed to making it happen.
