This is the best of modern day Britain. A break of play to allow goal scorer Diaby to open his fast - he has been fasting since dawn as a practising Muslim during the month of Ramadan. @AVFCOfficial @AVFCFoundation @premierleague @OpenIftar @adilray

Lozells needs more trees & better care for the ones we have! 🌳 Walked Lozells with Nick from Kier Highway Service to pinpoint what needs to be done. Let's green up our area! #Lozells #TreeCanopy #GreenSpaces #CommunityAction

What a day at @SimmerDownFest! #Handsworth Park is buzzing with the best reggae, mouth-watering jerk chicken, and incredible Caribbean vibes. Huge shoutout to the organisers for putting on such a brilliant community event! 🎉 #SimmerDownFestival #CommunityLove #BirminghamEvents

Absolutely gutted to learn of @HulkHogan’s passing. As a child, he was my hero in @WWE. His legacy and the spirit of Hulkamania will live on forever. Rest in peace, legend. 🙏💔 #HulkHogan #Hulkamania #RIPHulkHogan #WWE

Today, Birmingham mourns the loss of one of our most iconic sons, Ozzy Osbourne. From humble beginnings in Aston to global stardom, Ozzy never forgot his roots and he was a Brummie through and through.

So sad to hear of the passing of Ozzy Osbourne, an Aston hero who helped put Birmingham on the international map. Thank you for everything, Prince of Darkness. 🙏 #OzzyOsbourne #Birmingham #RIPOzzy

Yesterday's @NowkaBaisUK Festival at Edgbaston Reservoir was fantastic! So impressed with the organiser’s who pulled off an amazing event despite the tricky weather. Huge congrats! 👏 #NowkaBaisFestival #BirminghamEvents

What a fantastic afternoon at @NowkaBaisUK! So glad we got to experience being in one of the boats. Even better, it was wonderful catching up with new and old friends, all while enjoying the vibrant Bangladeshi music, culture, and sports! #NowkaBais #CommunityEvent #Bangladesh

Incredible final session with Birmingham's Schools Council at City Council House last week! Young people from Lozells, Birchfield, Aston, Handsworth, Perry Barr & beyond debated and set key priorities for our city. Their voices are vital, and I'm committed to acting on them.

Heathfield School is a huge part of my life! From my own days there to my kids attending now, and serving as Chair of Governors, it's special. Huge thanks to our staff & volunteer parents for greening up the school – it looks fantastic! #HeathfieldSchool #CommunityLove

Great day in Lozells! Loved engaging with residents, huge thanks to my amazing colleagues for their support. #Lozells #CommunityEngagement

Our City Vision prioritises fighting inequality. For Birmingham to truly thrive, we must shift our economic model to invest beyond the city centre. Let's create balance for all communities! #Birmingham #Fairness #Investment birmingham.gov.uk/info/50362/sha…

Big thanks to everyone who joined the Community Advice Surgery at Heathfield Primary School! 🙌@WaseemZaffar @MidHeartHelp Midland Heart @AspireNSucceed #lozells #handsworth #community

Working with the Labour government and @RichParkerLab funding for the Midlands Rail Hub was secured in the Spending Review which will see increased rail services across Birmingham👇

Great to see our local economy, especially Lozells, Soho, & Witton high streets, showing strong signs of resurgence! 🚀 We need more investment directly into these vital community hubs. #Birmingham #LocalEconomy #HighStreet @SohoRoadBID
