Together, we’re Making It Sandwell.
Made 50 years ago from six proud towns, Sandwell is a place built on making things happen. It’s where industry met innovation, and where strong communities still shape the future.
The Sandwell Story is a campaign and programme of work to celebrate the people, places and partnerships that make this borough a great place to live, work, learn and visit.
