Urban Devotion Birmingham
Youth Café

Urban Devotion Birmingham (UDB) is a resident-led charity serving various communities across Erdington.

UDB engages children, young people, and families in positive activities and educational opportunities in a range of environments - from schools to streets, from drop-in clubs to their youth van. Regardless of the context or activity, their focus is always on building long-term relationships to support individuals in overcoming life’s challenges and achieving their full potential.

Their work is broadly divided into three stages: Outreach & Engagement, Personal Development, and Resourcing Transformation. UDB get to know children and young people in their own neighbourhoods, guiding them on a personal development journey and inspiring their involvement in making a difference in their own and neighbouring communities.

UDB believes that God wants to write a story in Birmingham where children, young people, and families from some of the least advantaged areas embrace a bright and hopeful future. They are dedicated to transforming communities, one life at a time, grounded in a Christian foundation of prayer.

UDB runs a Youth Café in partnership with St Barnabas Church Centre in our Community Hub every Wednesday during term time from 3:30pm to 4:30pm. The café is a safe, warm, friendly place for young people aged 11-18 to come and enjoy a free cheese toastie and hot chocolate. There is also a variety of games, creative activities and a quiet space for homework and wellbeing.
