Sports Key is more than just sport – it’s about community, connections, and creating lifelong friendships. That’s why we would like to invite you to the Sports Key Social, a special evening to bring together all our participants, coaches, staff, volunteers, youth volunteers, and stakeholders to celebrate what makes Sports Key so special – people! We run a variety of sports, activities, events and initiatives across the community – but we don’t often get the chance to all be in the same room. This event is about: 🤝 Connecting – Meet new people and chatting with others from across our Sports Key family & wider community. 🎉 Celebrating – The amazing effort, commitment and energy our participants, staff and volunteers bring. 💡 Building Community – Breaking down barriers and strengthening friendships beyond the sports hall. We want everyone to feel welcome, included, and part of something bigger – whether you’ve been with us for years or just joined recently! ** All income from Sports Key Social ticket sales will go towards supporting the relief efforts in Jamaica, following the devastation of Hurricane Melissa. As a Birmingham based organisation with Jamaican roots and heritage, we want to do our small part in helping families and communities to rebuild across Jamaica. Thank you for your kind Donation.
Sports Key is a Birmingham based not for profit Community Interest Company (CIC) which exists to improve the wellbeing, cohesion, and life opportunities of disadvantaged people within our community. We aim to bring positive action and remove barriers to enable cohesion of people from all backgrounds particularly marginalised groups by utilising physical activity and culture as the vehicle to drive transformational change. Generally, we operate as a community solutions organisation delivering services based on key themes which are affecting our community. The type of services that we offer are physical activities, cohesion programmes, intergenerational activities, cultural events, youth development, mentoring and what we call a community of practice. - We aim to create greater social cohesion through integrating diverse communities and allowing people to try, share and celebrate new diverse experiences. - We aim to change inactive people to active people in deprived communities where access and affordability are key barriers to healthier lifestyles. - We aim to provide young people from the community who suffer from a lack of skills and education and/or on the margins of society, with practical opportunities to enhance their employability prospects whilst also making a positive contribution to the community that surrounds them
