Engaging with, investing in and empowering young people. We open 15:30 - 17:30 Monday, Wednesday and Friday, excluding bank holidays. OutThere!
The Gap's mission is to engage with young people, identify their needs, invest time and resources in order to empower them to be the best of themselves in their lives. We hold a "drop-in" after school or college called The Venue on Trinity Hill, up past Sutton Coldfield Baptist Church and at the end of the top car park on the left.
