Can you help support our vital services?
The Springfield Project supports 2000 local families a year through our Children’s Centre, nurseries and community services. Our amazing achievements as a charity rely almost entirely on income from grants. One way we could develop and secure our future is by growing our income from donations. A small donation could make a big difference.

We are living in difficult times. The costs of food and energy are a cause for worry for everyone. Many local families are experiencing challenging times. But the wonderful thing about the Sparkhill community is the way we come together to support each other. That’s why, at this crucial time we really need your support to help us fund vital services, which in turn support the local people who need us most.

We believe everyone deserves to live life in all its fullness

The Holiday Playscheme gives local children something to look forward to in the holidays and provides a nutritious meal to make sure no child need go hungry during school holidays.

Place of Welcome brings together adults in the community helping to combat loneliness and providing a hot meal and a warm space during the winter months.

Our Early Years work remains at the heart of all we do. With two nurseries as well as our Children’s Centre and the Seedlings stay and play group, we are supporting the needs of the youngest members of our community and their families through those precious ‘first 1000 days’.

A donation of any size will help us support local people at their point of need. You can use the form below to make a one off gift or set up a regular donation, easily and securely online. Your generosity will help to make a big difference to people in the heart of the Sparkhill community. Thankyou.

🏫 Our returning children have come back with big smiles on their faces, and our new children are settling in beautifully.

We've been busy baking, creating, making, and exploring together, with lots of exciting learning already taking place.

We can't wait to see what this year will bring and all the wonderful memories we'll make along the way!

Child Friendly Neighbourhood is a programme by The Springfield Project that works with children, families and local partners to help make Sparkhill a safer, healthier and more child-friendly place to grow up.

From holiday playschemes and outdoor activities to giving young people a voice in shaping their community, the programme creates opportunities for children to play, connect and thrive.

🌐 Find out more about our Child Friendly Neighbourhood programme by visiting our website. https://www.springfieldproject.org.uk/children-over-5/child-friendly-neighbourhood/

💚 Tomorrow, we'll be sharing Dilmah and her mum's full story, showing how the summer playscheme has made a real difference to their family.

During our Startwell Stay & Play session for children aged 2 and under, we hosted a fussy eating workshop focused on #Micky Me Size portion guidance, providing families with one-to-one support where needed. 

Healthy Start vitamins and practical fact sheets for families to take home. The children explored the variety of activities from tracing their hands,  role-playing with foods and dinosaurs.
