    Amanda has suggested that all us Birmingham Transitioners check out this Transition Town Forum as a possible tool for Transition Birmingham.

    So, if you are Birmingham based and are reading this please leave a post to introduce yourself.

    Thanks

    Amanda here! I will post a link to this topic on the Transition Brum Discuss email list.

    Perhaps we can explore over the next few days how well this forum works for us for discussion, and then report back to the Hub Second Wednesday for June, on Wed 10 Jun at The Journey MCC from 7pm: http://transition-brum.wikispot.org/Contact

    Is anyone here interested in facilitating a showing of The Power of Community film in their Birmingham neighbourhood over the next few months? I'd like to put my hand up and ask for expressions of support - I'll do my best to support showings elsewhere around the city in my turn!

    For non-Birmingham readers ... Transition Brum is still mulling, seeing if a consensus is emerging about how to move forward. One possibility is that one of our (huge!) wards will 'go critical' and start to form a Ward-level Transition Neighbourhood Initiative, which will then help everyone else in Birmingham to move forward, and enable the formation of an official Transition Birmingham with a formal Hub structure. Any guidance on that process, gratefully received!

    Is there a consensus amongst Birmingham people about the focus for our June Second Wednesday - is it 'Steps toward an Official Transition Initiative in Birmingham'?

    Hi, Martin D here. Wanted to support you and try out the forum - all seems simple enough! I'm actually based in Shirley (part of Solihull) - is there anyone else from my neck of the woods who might like to explore a bit more about Transition Solihull, or is Solihull too wealthy to have to consider that at the moment (snigger)??

    Hi, Martin. Glad you made it on to the forum OK!

    Do you know any of the Freecycle Solihull people - might some of them be interested in a Transition Solihull group: http://www.freecycle.org/group/UK/West%20Midlands/Solihull

    I will just go and start a new Transition Solihull thread ...

    Hi All

    The forum seems to work really well, I got my password etc in a matter of seconds, and it’s nice to see the topics laid out so clearly. I now feel like I will be able to follow up my interest in events and hope to get more involved.

    I guess it will take a little while for people to log on and get used to the forum, but I think its well worth a go, perhaps we could make a regular plugging for it in the emails if there is further interest here.

    Righto, a little about myself-, I live right in the centre of Sutton Coldfield- (B73), I’m keen to learn more about the application of the transition vision in Birmingham and look forward to positive action particularly with my fellow Suttonians!

    Thanks very much and hope to see you Wed 10 Jun at The Journey MCC from 7pm!
