EDU GIVE

🎉 A huge thank you to ITVET – Your Trusted Technology Partner!

We are deeply grateful to ITVET for their incredibly generous donation of 23 computers to Edu Give. This kind act will directly impact so many young learners who now have access to the technology they need to grow, explore, and build their futures.

A very special thank you to Becky, whose warm heart and selfless initiative made this all happen. Becky, you are a true champion for education — your kindness has touched our entire community and will ripple forward through every student who sits at one of these computers. We are so lucky to have someone like you in our corner. 💛

At Edu Give, we exist to connect generosity with opportunity — and ITVET has shown what that looks like in the most beautiful way. This donation is more than hardware. It is confidence, curiosity, and a chance for children to dream bigger.

Thank you, ITVET. Thank you, Becky. You have made a real difference. 🙏

"Generosity is not just about giving resources — it's about giving people a future."

Today we celebrated the completion of our Minecraft Coding Course, and we are incredibly proud of all the children who took part. Over the sessions, the students explored creativity, problem-solving and the basics of coding while building and learning inside the Minecraft world.

Each participant showed fantastic enthusiasm and teamwork, and to recognise their achievement every child was awarded a Certificate of Completion. 👏

🌟 Building Safer, Stronger Spaces for Our Young People – Together 🌟

Over the past year, Edu Give CIC has been listening.

Through Facebook conversations, surveys, school engagement, faith centres and face-to-face discussions, we gathered the voices of over 125 local parents, young people and residents.

The message was clear:

🗣️ “Young people need more safe, empowering and positive spaces that bring the community together.”

Parents shared concerns about isolation, boredom and exposure to negative influences if positive opportunities aren’t available. Older residents told us they want to better understand the challenges young people face — and be part of the solution.

Earlier pilot sessions proved what’s possible.
Young people told us they felt:

✔️ “More confident”
✔️ “Part of something positive”
✔️ Inspired and supported

That impact is why we are now developing a longer-term intergenerational programme combining:

🎨 Creative workshops
⚽ Sports & wellbeing activities
🧠 Personal development sessions
🤝 Community showcase events

This isn’t just a project — it’s a community movement.

We’ve built a passionate team of local volunteers and parents ready to help run sessions. Schools and local businesses have pledged promotion and in-kind support to ensure sustainability and long-term impact.

Together, we are creating spaces where young people feel seen, valued and empowered — and where the whole community grows stronger.

If you’d like to get involved as a volunteer, parent supporter or partner organisation, message us directly.

🔴 Knife Crime Awareness Workshop – This Saturday 🔴

Knife crime is affecting families and communities across Birmingham. Education is one of the strongest tools we have to protect our young people and prevent violence before it starts.

Many young people carry knives out of fear, pressure, or misunderstanding the consequences. One decision can change a life forever.

That’s why we’re hosting a Knife Crime Awareness Session to create open conversations, provide guidance, and empower young people to make safe choices.

📅 This Saturday
⏰ 12:00PM – 2:00PM
🥗 Nourishment will be provided

Message to Register

This session will focus on:
✔️ Understanding the real consequences of carrying a knife
✔️ Building confidence to resist peer pressure
✔️ Conflict resolution skills
✔️ Keeping yourself and your community safe

Let’s come together to protect our young people and build a safer Birmingham.

If you’re a parent, young person, or community member — we welcome you to attend.

Birmingham Together Project – What a Saturday! - 21/02/2026

Last Saturday was a beautiful reminder of what community really looks like ❤️

Our Birmingham Together Project brought volunteers and local residents together in such a positive, uplifting way. The turnout was amazing, the energy was powerful, and the unity in the room was something special.

A huge thank you to all our volunteers who gave their time to contribute, support and make the day meaningful. Your presence truly makes a difference in Birmingham.

Special appreciation to John 🙌 – your contribution was outstanding and didn’t go unnoticed. Your effort, commitment and positive spirit helped make the day a real success. Thank you!

This is what Birmingham Together is about – connection, collaboration and community strength.

If you’d like to get involved as a volunteer and contribute to future sessions, we’d love to hear from you. Let’s continue building something powerful for our city.

Thank you for your continued support — it truly means everything

Week 2 in the books.

This week in our Photography Course, we broke down aperture and the exposure triangle — understanding how light, depth, and control work together to shape every image.

No guesswork. No auto mode.
Just real skills that turn creativity into confidence.

Every week builds knowledge you can actually use — whether it’s for content, business, or a future career.

Only 4 slots left in our Photography Course at EduGive.

We’re starting this Wednesday at 11am, and once these places are gone, they’re gone.

If you want to:
• Learn real photography skills
• Build confidence with a camera
• Create content for work, business, or yourself

Now’s the time.
