Our Mission

St. Paul’s Community Development Trust had its origins in the desire of people in Balsall Heath to make a better future for their children, getting together to start a nursery, adventure playground and small school. The three groups joined forces to establish the Trust in the late 1970s, and from these small beginnings in voluntary endeavour it has grown to be a thriving organisation.

Mission

The Trust aims to work with and alongside the people of Balsall Heath in Birmingham and the wider neighbourhood to promote education, recreation and life-long learning.

What we do

We work with children, young people, and adults, who are involved with the Trust in many different ways. Many of those who came at first to use one of its facilities have gone on to support it as volunteers, as committee members, or joined the staff as employees.
