One of the UK’s leading humanitarian aid charities is set to launch its first-ever community hub in Birmingham.
‘The Third Space’, opening on Friday, October 10, in Sparkhill is an initiative being launched by Birmingham – Human Appeal.
It’s the first of its kind in Birmingham and is designed to be a ‘home away from home’ for local residents, offering a welcoming space where people can come together to belong, connect, and uplift one another.
‘The Third Space’ aims to provide more than just a gathering place.
It will serve as a vibrant centre of community life with opportunities for educational classes, social gatherings, volunteering, spiritual connection, and essential community services.
The launch marks a significant step in Human Appeal’s mission to serve humanity not only globally, where it is already well established, but also locally in Birmingham – one of the UK’s most diverse and community-driven cities.
Habib Khan, Birmingham hub co-ordinator, said: ‘We are honoured to be opening our first Third Space hub here in Birmingham, a city known for its compassion, diversity, and resilience.
‘This hub will give people a space to belong, to serve, and to grow together.
‘It is our way of giving back to the community and building bridges of hope and unity.’
The grand opening of The Third Space community hub in Birmingham will take place after Friday prayers on October 10, and all members of the community are warmly invited to attend.
