Safer 6 2025 Campaign
Sandwell’s annual Safer 6 campaign is back for 2025, bringing six weeks of activities focused on addressing concerns, providing information, and promoting services that are available year-round to help people in Sandwell stay safe and healthy.
The campaign launches on 9 June and will run until 20 July.
Each week will focus on a specific town, with activities run by council services and external partners.
- Week 1, Oldbury: Monday 9 June – Sunday 15 June 2025
- Week 2, Tipton: Monday 16 June – Sunday 22 June 2025
- Week 3, Wednesbury: Monday 23 June – Sunday 29 June 2025
- Week 4, Rowley Regis: Monday 30 June – Sunday 6 July 2025
- Week 5, West Bromwich: Monday 7 July – Sunday 13 July 2025
- Week 6, Smethwick: Monday 14 July – Sunday 20 July 2025
There will be six aims running throughout the campaign:
- Increase awareness of crime prevention, safety measures, and partnership successes to help deter offending and provide public reassurance.
- Give residents, businesses, and organisations the knowledge and confidence to report community safety issues and seek support.
- Help vulnerable people of all ages, with a focus on tackling knife crime and preventing violence against women and girls.
- Improve public spaces by targeting issues such as littering, fly-tipping, and graffiti.
- Promote healthier lifestyles and our work to protect the public from the sale of illegal and dangerous goods.
- Bring communities together through events and activities to help foster cohesion.
