Northfield Customer Service Centre
- Important Information
-
The Northfield Customer Service Centre offers a walk-in advice service to the public. If your enquiry is not too complex, we may be able to assist in just a few minutes at our reception desk or else signpost you to other support. However, if your enquiry is more complex and requires an appointment then, depending on the urgency of your enquiry, we will offer an appointment usually within 10 working days if possible.
Due to the high demand for face to face appointments you may prefer to seek immediate advice via the council’s Contact Centre on 0121 216 3030 instead
