John Bonham “The Rhythm of Redditch” was made possible

with the support of the partners of the Cultural Compact

for North East Worcestershire, a partnership of

organisations all with a collective ambition to build pride

across the Redditch and Bromsgrove area.

It sits within the context of the partnership’s first major

public facing participation campaign : ReNEW (Rediscover

North East Worcestershire) which encourages local people

to “share stories” in a bid to shape the future of the local

area. The legacy of John Bonham is an amazing example of

why we are so proud of the place where we live and we

want the whole world to know about it!

This particular project would not have been possible

without the leadership support of Redditch Borough

Council and a broad range of exciting contributions from

Redditch library managed by Worcestershire County

Council, Muj Rahman at the Redditch BID, Ros Sidaway at
the John Bonham Memorial Friends who provided much of

the information and images shared here and Sue Thomas.

The cultural content was developed with the specialist

support of Birmingham Open Media, Grin Creative, Matt

Green at the Palace Drum Clinic, and Jez Collins at

Birmingham Music Archive

The project was made possible through funding from the

UK Government.
