Robert Grosvenor
Reform UK candidate for Bournville & Cotteridge
I am honoured to be standing for Reform in the Cotteridge & Bournville ward in the Local Election on 7th May 2026. Having lived and worked in the area all my life, I have a deep understanding of the real issues that matter most to local residents. As a highly respected local business owner, I see first-hand the challenges facing families and small businesses, and I am committed to helping our community revive and thrive once again. Through my experience chairing a business association within the ward, I know what it takes to bring people together and deliver positive change. I believe in practical solutions, strong local leadership, and putting residents first. I care deeply about the future of Cotteridge & Bournville. I am standing because I want to make a real and lasting difference, ensuring our community is represented with integrity, common sense, and decisive action.
