About us

Tamworth is a large market town right in the centre of Britain – close enough to Birmingham to share the benefits of working with England’s second city, but far enough away to have its own distinct identity. The borough of Tamworth has a population of approximately 77,000. Here at Tamworth Borough Council, we are responsible for providing a wide range of services for those residents, as well as for the many businesses based here and the people who visit the borough. Our council is currently made up of 21 Conservative councillors, 6 Labour councillors, 1 UK Independence Party (UKIP) councillor and 2 Independent councillors. What we do: The services we provide include: housing and housing repairs, help with benefits, council tax, planning, leisure, waste collections and recycling, street cleaning, environmental health, business rates (collected on behalf of the government), help with setting up a business and applying for licenses. We also run Tamworth Castle, Tamworth Assembly Rooms and Tamworth Enterprise Centre. But our aim is not just to provide services – we also have a vision for ‘To put Tamworth, its people and the local economy at the heart of everything we do’. This sees us working in partnership with other organisations to make Tamworth a better place for people to live, work and visit.

    REVISED MESSAGE @ 12.30PM 24/12/24: ❗The joint waste service moved a number of bin collections forward because of Christmas, and tagged people’s bins to let them know to put them out early.❗ We are concerned that some people may have missed the advertised deadline and so we have taken immediate steps to try to help residents in the following way: ➡️If your bin is normally emptied on a Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday and you didn't put your black bin out on your revised collection day, please leave it out and we’ll try to come back and empty it on Christmas Eve, Friday or SATURDAY. If your black bin is not emptied by 4pm on Saturday, please email [email protected]. ➡️If you didn't put your blue bin, blue bag or purple bin out on your revised collection day, please put them out on your next normal collection day and we’ll take extra glass, cans and plastic in tied carrier bags or clear plastic bags, and extra cardboard folded neatly next to your bin. Find out about festive bin arrangements here: https://lnkd.in/eCVnxMpX Thank you for your understanding, The waste & recycling team

    🌬️#StormDarragh resulted in Tamworth Borough Council receiving 14 reports relating to tree damage. 🌲Two call outs were carried out at the weekend. The council teams were notified of a conifer limb that had snapped off in a private property in Lintly, but had blocked the footpath on Pennine Way and partially the road. (See image below). This was made safe, removed from the footpath and road.👏
