Organisation description

New Beginnings Community builds on experience in our local community of Sandwell and surrounding area. Our desire is to work with people to seek ways to enhance and build cohesion, and to support and empower those who are marginalised at the edges of our community. Using Asset Based Community Development, we facilitate and develop projects which allow people to come together to establish supportive and encouraging friendships and partnerships. We believe that a community flourishes best when we are a movement working together, and that everyone benefits when we welcome, embrace, include, and give dignity to, the diversity of thoughts, ideas and ways of working that people from different backgrounds, experiences and identities bring.
