Perry Barr NNS

Perry Barr NNS This page is for the Perry Barr Constituency. We’re part of a city-wide network that identifies crucial services and health and well-being activities.

Perry Barr NNS (Neighbourhood Network Scheme) aims to ensure that local residents over 50 and 18-49 with longterm health needs to can access community based support for well-being & a better quality of life. Birmingham’s NNS (Neighbourhood Network Scheme) helps local residents over 50 years old, access community based services and activities that promote well-being and a better quality of life.

Due to the success of the original scheme for older people, the NNS was extended in April 2022 to include younger adults aged 18 – 49 who have a long–term disability. We connect and support local groups and social work teams in the Perry Barr constituency wards of Handsworth, Handsworth Wood, Holyhead, Lozells, Kingstanding, Birchfield, Perry Barr and Oscott.

This August, we’re so excited to be celebrating Carers’ voices at Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery as part of Forward Carers’ 10-year anniversary.

We’ll be filling a beautiful exhibition space with artwork, creative stories, and inspiring quotes that reflect the experiences, strength, and resilience of Carers – and we would love you to be part of it.

🎨 You can send us a photo of your own artwork or creative piece to be included.
🖌 Or if you’d like to have a go at creating something new, we still have a few spaces left on our Carers art workshops (no art experience needed, just come along and have a go!).

👉 Find all the details and book your workshop space here:

Your voice matters. Your story matters. Let’s show the city the incredible heart of our caring community.
