Colmore BID’s Safe and Sound Working Group delivers projects to keep those who work and visit the District safe and secure, day and night.
We have developed a range of events and activity this year to help support our District members in the community to raise awareness of the different types of antisocial behaviour, and how they can detect it, support others and help our community become a safer place.

The pop up will take place on Tuesday 19 November ‘Victims Day’ and will highlight innovative safety measures, offering information on new security features, safe travel routes, and services designed to protect commuters in Birmingham’s bustling Colmore Business District.
If you’d like to ‘pop’ along you will receive travel advice, and learn about the BID’s ongoing work to enhance the District’s environment, fostering a safer and more secure community for everyone.
