Soho Games Champions 2010
In the glorious sunshine 180 children from the Soho Ward took part in the 2nd Soho Games – an inter school sports competition that enables children to experience top quality competitive activities including football, athletics,uni-hockey and handball. The Games were organised by a partnership between Ladywood Constituency team/Neighbourhood Management , the local charity Sport 4 Life, and the Soho Links Cluster, and were attended by Benson, Wattville, James Watt, Matthew Boulton, Foundry and St James primary schools.
Benson School were crowned Soho Games Champions, having won the football, athletics and handball competitions. Wattville claimed the runners-up prize, while James Watt came a respectable 3rd. It was not all about winning, however, as all of the children benefitted from improved team-work skills, sense of community, and physical fitness. The children were also inspired by local hero Cash The Flash who presented all of the trophies and medals.

The 2011 Census is fast approaching and as neighbourhood Managers we are also helping to raise awareness. It is good for Birmingham that we get a complete and successful census, because the more people counted the more money the City receives. It is mandatory to complete the questionnaire, failure to do so can lead to a £1000 fine
You can help make the census in Birmingham a success by completing the census questionnaire and assisting those around you to do likewise. There are residents whose first language isn’t English who may need your help or support from the census team in completing census questionnaire-click on link for more information and contact details 2011 Census.
