Become a friend

Get involved or become a friend of Bfriends charity

Bfriends could not achieve what it does without the help and support of our partners, people, businesses, and community organisations. Our friends are at the heart of what we do.

Some donate to support our programmes and events for young people and adults, Others fundraise for Bfriends enabling us to undertake projects in local communities. Some provide gifts and essential items, as well as providing experiences.

Others give up their time volunteering at events or provide mentoring or lend us their expertise to assist children in care and care leavers in Birmingham.

When you pledge to becoming a friend of our charity, we will ask you to sign up to becoming a champion of one of our priorities.

We recognise that everyone has something great to bring to the work we do and want to work with you on your journey with Bfriends from the very beginning.

A key part of working with Bfriends is the opportunities that you get by being a friend.

Some of these opportunities include:

  • Exclusive invitations to attend our events throughout the year.
  • Professional development opportunities and training through accredited mentoring programmes led by Birmingham Children’s Trust.
  • Team-building opportunities.
  • Celebrating your Bfriends milestones through our social media channels, at events, and through our reporting channels.
  • Your own Bfriends registration certificate and pin badges.
