What is Safer 6?

Safer 6 brings together local partners to help keep our communities safe, informed and supported.

Every year, the Safer 6 initiative brings six weeks of activities across Sandwell, focused on addressing local concerns and helping people feel safer in their communities.

Through events, advice sessions and partnership work, the campaign connects residents with the support, services and information available all year round. Whether you’re looking to take part, learn something new, or access support, there are activities happening near you.
