Making Our Mark!
@LifegateCommun Champions had a wonderful time at @WBSC Day Centre in #Walsall, connecting with older residents through tie-dye and bracelet-making.
From choosing colours to revealing unique designs, there was plenty of creativity, laughter & new skills shared.
This August, GenNxt Power youths explored an inspiring life-skills session on “Service in the Community”. They enjoyed games, freebies, food and volunteering at our Community BBQ!
Thanks to @WestMidsPCC for supporting our proactive crime, violence and ASB prevention initiative.

This summer, @LifegateCommun is encouraging girls from our community in #Walsall to get active, discover their potential, build confidence and find joy in sport.
Sometimes, inspiration starts by simply seeing what is possible. We hope experiences at @EuroAthletics fuel passion.
We were delighted to take a group of girls from our community in #Walsall to watch #Birmingham2026: @EuroAthletics, inspiring the next generation.
It was more than a day at the athletics; it was an opportunity to see talent, ambition and possibility up close.
