Since opening in September, the centre has become a real community asset, welcoming hundreds of people through its doors and providing vital support to help them build skills and grow their ideas. This visit underlines our commitment to investing in facilities that deliver real outcomes for local people and businesses right here in Bloxwich. “ Councillor Adrian Andrew, Deputy Leader Walsall Council The Mayor of the West Midlands praised the Launchpad’s achievements to date, highlighting its role in supporting inclusive growth, digital inclusion and local enterprise. “ It’s been great to see first-hand the real difference this hub is making.

Places like Launchpad are vital for helping people gain skills, start and grow businesses, and drive opportunity right across our region. “ Richard Parker, Mayor of the West Midlands Bloxwich Launchpad sits at the heart of Walsall’s broader regeneration programme, which saw major improvements delivered across the borough in 2025 from community facilities to parks and enterprise spaces all designed to create opportunity, support learning and enhance wellbeing for residents.

The scheme will deliver an inviting, engaging and quality public space around the northern end of Park Street and its link to Gallery Square. This will provide a stronger connection between the High Street, The New Art Gallery, Canal Basin and local restaurant and entertainment facilities. The project will help to change the experience people have when visiting Walsall Town Centre. The physical and visual links will encourage more use of the Waterfront and its facilities and put The New Art Gallery at its heart. In partnership with Canal & River Trust, the canal basin will be improved for town centre users and canal boaters. New and improved facilities will encourage boaters to visit and extend their stays around the Canal Basin, creating a vibrant and active waterfront for casual visitors, shoppers and gallery visitors. The scheme is funded through the Government’s Town Deal.
