The Local Government Boundary Commission wants to hear what residents and local organisations think about proposals to change council wards in Sandwell.

A ten-week consultation on the proposals will run until 12 May 2025. 

The Commission is the independent body that draws these boundaries. It is reviewing Sandwell to make sure councillors will represent about the same number of electors, and that ward arrangements will help the council work effectively. 

The Commission has published proposals for changes to Sandwell.

It is proposing that there should be 72 councillors representing 24 three-councillor wards.

Most ward boundaries should change; one will stay the same.
