Why Castle Vale

Castle Vale has a long history of people coming together to improve the area — from regeneration in the 1990s to community-led initiatives today. It’s a place with strong local identity, a sense of pride, and residents who know what’s needed.

But like many areas, it also faces challenges. Some homes are cold or hard to heat. Energy bills are high. Damp and draughts are a concern for some residents. This project is a chance to tackle those issues head-on — with local people in the lead.
