  • Wythall straddles the A435 7 miles from Birmingham and 13 miles from Alcester
  • Wythall is a unique place name - and there are not that many!
  • Why Wythall.Info?
  • Some places are well served when it comes to online information and some are not - Wythall is one such place, rather than accept that fact the easiest solution was to launch Wythall.Info - written and run from the heart of Wythall for the residents and local businesses.
  • Whilst there are other sites in the area non concentrate on local issues in and around Wythall and whilst I accept there are many people who work in Solihull, Birmingham or Redditch the sites covering those areas do not cover Wythall. So if you would like to add editorial, comment on local issues or advertise please do get in touch.
  • The website is intended to be simple to navigate but capable of being expanded - so if there is a topic which is not covered and you feel should be then please put forward your views.
  • Broken links - if you find any please do let us know.
  • A website is never finished only published and so it is on the launch of this new venture there will be pages without content or much content - we will add more content and hopefully those who are interested will also add to the content.
  • Wythall.Info is brought to you by Charles Willcock aka I first became acquainted with the area back in the early 1980's and moved to Shawhurst Lane in 1992. Whilst I have no objection to the gentle expansion in housing and traffic I hope that the gentle growth of Wythall will not be at the expense of the green belt which makes Wythall the pleasant place it is.

Annual intake of beginners

Wythall Taekwon Do is preparing for its yearly beginners intake. The club, which has produced nearly 20 black belts from the area in four years, has over 100 members from 5 to 50 something. One of the hardest part of taking up something like this is simply walking through the door to have a go... which is why we run these 'All New Beginners' groups that start each September.

The classes are for adults and older juniors and will take you from beginner to intermediate in around 12 months. You don't need to be superfit to begin - but you will get fitter. Neither do you need to be able to touch your toes... but you will get fitter. First night will be on Tuesday 16th September, 6.30 and we're taking enquiries now. It's a great way to gain cofidence, have fun and meet new people.

Intersted? - wisit our website or call Geoff on 07974 707718.

After 70 years in existence Hashing is enjoyed all over the world. However on Saturday 13th September, Majors Green will host a Hash run. Why not come along for a run & a pint.

Outrage in Wythall at plans to close The Alex Maternity Unit

It seems impossible to believe that the NHS has got more money and yet needs to shut the Alex Maternity Unit.

Wythall.Info would like to hear your views!

Does asking mothers-to-be to travel 20 miles to Worcester makes sense?

How much will this move save? - (not very much Wythall.Info expects)

When literally tens of billons of pounds is being spent on a new IT infrastructure for the NHS does this not show that the Government has its priorities mixed up?

Please use the form below to let others know your views.

Not got a computer...

- Wythall Library has half a dozen connected to the internet and usually you should be able to get a seat in front of one - which you can use to add an entry.
