Inclusive Life Projects
Charity 1195760
Overview
Summary
Inclusive Life Projects appears to combine accessible sport with informal support for carers, positioning leisure not simply as recreation but as a route to inclusion, wellbeing and connection. Its use of Boccia suggests a practical focus on reducing barriers to participation for disabled people, while its respite and networking activity indicates recognition that carers’ wellbeing affects the wider support system around disabled people. The available evidence suggests a small, relationship-based service model, though its reach and partnerships are unclear.
Operational geography
Evidence and reasoning
Supporting evidence
Yardley West and Stechford
Confidence: medium
The organisation's currently accessible official website identifies the charity as being in Stechford, Birmingham and invites contact for appointments and opening hours. This supports a Birmingham operational base in Stechford, but does not provide a full service-site address or confirm the range of activities delivered there.
- Inclusive Life Projects official website, homepage
The contact section describes Inclusive Life Projects as a charity in 'Stechford, Birmingham, United Kingdom' and asks people to call for appointments or opening hours. - Inclusive Life Projects official website, education activities page
The current site footer again identifies the charity as being in 'Stechford, Birmingham, United Kingdom'.
Aston
Confidence: low
The official website records a charity fundraising event in Aston on 25 May 2024. This is direct evidence that the organisation operated an event there, but it is a dated, apparently one-off venue use rather than evidence of a continuing service base or regular delivery.
- Inclusive Life Projects official website, activities page
The organisation reports that its annual fundraising event supporting children with cerebral palsy was held at the Bangladesh Multi-Purpose Centre in Aston, Birmingham, on 25 May 2024. - Charity Commission record for Bangladesh Multi-Purpose Centre
The venue is listed in Aston, Birmingham.
Stockland Green
Confidence: low
A 2026 public event listing identifies Inclusive Life Projects as organiser of an in-person annual fundraising gala at the Magnet Centre. This supports recent activity at a named venue in Birmingham, but does not establish the ward or confirm ongoing service delivery or a physical site controlled by the charity.
- Eventbrite listing for Inclusive Life Projects Annual Fundraising Gala
The listing identifies Inclusive Life Projects as organiser of an in-person annual fundraising gala at the Midlands Greek & Cypriot Association in Birmingham, in support of its children's cerebral palsy support group.
Remaining uncertainties
- There is no published current timetable, venue list or programme information showing where the charity delivers its advice, carer support, respite sessions or Boccia activities within Birmingham.
- The registered charity address should not be treated as an operational site. It also differs from the official website's less specific Stechford location.
- The evidence supports use of venues in Aston and at the Magnet Centre in Birmingham for fundraising events, not regular delivery of frontline services in those wards.
- The official website identifies a registered Cameroon chapter and reports a donation activity there in August 2024. This supports the international coverage classification, although the current scale and continuity of the Cameroon operation are not independently evidenced.
- The Universal Peace Federation UK Birmingham Branch participated in the 2024 Aston fundraising event, but the available evidence does not show a continuing delivery partnership or that it materially extends the charity's Birmingham service reach.
- Available evidence does not justify a conclusion that the organisation delivers services citywide across Birmingham, despite its broad charitable purposes and online advice/signposting offer.
Additional evidence needed
- A current programme timetable identifying the venues, wards, frequency and participant catchments for Boccia, carer respite, networking, advocacy and advice sessions.
- Confirmation from Inclusive Life Projects of its current operational base, including whether its registered address, a Stechford venue, or another location is used for appointments and delivery.
- Current written agreements or partner statements identifying any venues or organisations that host recurring Inclusive Life Projects services.
- A current annual report or activity report separating Birmingham delivery from Cameroon activity and distinguishing direct services from fundraising events.

Observations
Leisure is treated as a form of social inclusion
The organisation appears to use accessible leisure activity as a means of improving quality of life for people excluded from mainstream opportunities, rather than treating sport as an end in itself.
Why it matters
This helps distinguish the organisation from a conventional sports provider: its role may sit at the intersection of disability inclusion, wellbeing and community participation.
Show evidence
“Its objects are to provide or assist facilities for recreation or leisure-time occupation for people in need because of youth, age, infirmity, disability, financial hardship or social circumstances, to improve their conditions of life.”

The organisation may support a wider care network, not only individual participants
Its informal meetings and respite relaxation sessions suggest that carers are an important, though not explicitly named, part of its operating model. The organisation may therefore create value through peer connection and relief alongside direct activity provision.
Why it matters
This indicates a potentially broader community role: strengthening carers’ capacity and relationships may indirectly improve continuity of support for disabled people.
Show evidence
“It holds informal networking meetings to share experience, advice and activities to support carers.”

Boccia may be a deliberate accessibility strategy
Offering Boccia may indicate that the organisation has selected an activity suited to varied physical abilities and focused on participation where disabled people experience lower involvement in sport.
Why it matters
This suggests a distinctive practical capability: adapting opportunity through an inclusive activity, rather than only advocating for inclusion in existing provision.
Show evidence
“The involvement of disabled people in sport is significantly lower than that of non-disabled people.”
Source:Organisation“Boccia is a target ball sport which tests muscle control and accuracy.”

- Whether carers are a core beneficiary group or are supported primarily in relation to disabled participants.
- The organisation's geographic reach, number of participants, delivery setting and partner relationships.
- Whether its advocacy and advice activity extends beyond informal peer support.
Remaining uncertainties
- Information on participant groups, attendance, referral routes and outcomes for both Boccia and carer sessions.
- Evidence of local partnerships, accessible facilities, volunteer capacity and how disabled people shape programme design.
