LoveBrum is a Birmingham based charity dedicated to discovering, supporting, and funding small, volunteered “hidden gem” projects They seek out grassroots initiatives that address issues such as social justice, serious crime, mental health, homelessness, addiction, and people in crisis, especially those that struggle to access funding or wider support.
As supporters for LoveBrum, creating a lasting a real difference in the city is a huge pride that we carry. Championing our unsung heroes who really curate a stronger, fairer and more inclusive Birmingham for us all.
“As a LoveBrum supporter, Intercity's support has been vital in helping us reach more grassroot, volunteer-led causes across the city. There patronage goes further than just a donation, the Intercity team have supported LoveBrum with fundraising, spreading the word about the great work that happens across Birmingham, volunteering in the community and utilising their knowledge to upskill local charities on how best to manage their cybersecurity! Thank you Intercity” Adam Heard, LoveBrum
The Changemaker Programme brings together some of Birmingham’s most influential companies to create lasting change for sick children at Birmingham Children’s Hospital. Through multi-year commitments, Changemakers fund life-saving equipment, pioneering medical projects, and the design of child-friendly spaces that make hospital stays less frightening and more supportive for young patients and their families.
