Police & Crime Commissioner visits Birmingham Pastors

WMCA PCC Simon Foster meets Birmingham Pastor project

Having heard so much about student interns from Birmingham City University volunteering to join Networkfour's Birmingham Pastors street care teams, he came to meet some of them on a Friday evening. Delighted with what he saw, he added his personal recommendation saying, "they provide an accessible, reassuring, visible presence out on the streets and, in turn, that contributes to preventing and reducing crime, promoting community safety, safeguarding the vulnerable and keeping the people and communities of the city centre safe and secure."

Volunteers: We Need You

We depend almost entirely on the kindness and commitment of our volunteers. The Birmingham Pastors project particularly is built on volunteering by the good people from faith groups, students, retired folks or anyone (over 18 years old) with a heart for the vulnerable who can commit to at least one four-hour shift per month.

We try to be as flexible as possible to get you rapidly registered, trained up and active. Go on, hit that button!
