Programmes and case studies

Sport is the doorway. Behind it sit mentoring, food support, coaching qualifications and a calmer place to walk.

Youth session

Premier League Kicks

An Aston Villa Foundation youth club runs with the Council’s Prevent team. Young people play, join workshops and receive mentoring from staff in a supervised space after school.

Festive food distribution

United Community Activity Network has worked with Birmingham City Council, LGK in the Community, the Hub and Continental Star FC for eight years on an annual festive food bank that tackles food poverty in the city.

Community football group

Walk 4 Health & Strength

Mondays at 9.45am. Walks are gentle, enjoyable and in a safe space. Walk at your own pace and set your own goals. All welcome. Office hours for other bookings are Monday to Saturday 9am–5pm and Sunday 10am–2pm.

Volunteering and coaching

Members can move from playing into work experience, first-aid and coaching awards. The site is largely maintained by volunteers, which keeps hire prices within reach of local families.
