Shortlisted for Community Engagement for The Pineapple Awards 2025🍍

Our project with National Trust and Birmingham City Council, with Open Door Community Foundation - Firs and Bromford Pocket Park has been shortlisted for Community Engagement. The project was funded by the UK Government’s shared Prosperity fund. A big thank you to all involved. Over 6 months in code sign and cobuild, out community shaped every part of their pocket park with their voices, ideas and hands (often covered in mud!).

The pineapples are part of the Festival Place award and are the only awards that celebrate the very best in placemaking and place-led initiatives.

Thanks to everyone involved with the project and congratulations to the shortlist!
