Mansura Foundation
Charity 1173104
Overview
Summary
Mansura Foundation appears to use family learning as a route into wider social inclusion. Its recorded project focused on helping minority ethnic parents in east and south Birmingham support their children’s learning, while its charitable remit extends to people experiencing exclusion linked to social and economic deprivation. This suggests a small, community-facing organisation whose role may be to strengthen confidence, information and participation within families rather than providing narrowly specialist educational support.

Evidence and reasoning
Supporting evidence
Remaining uncertainties
- The Charity Commission records Birmingham City as an area of operation and describes a Family and Community Learning Project for minority ethnic communities in east and south Birmingham, but does not identify delivery venues, neighbourhoods, wards, dates of delivery or partner organisations.
- The latest reported financial year ended 31 March 2025 and records £0 income and £0 expenditure. This makes it unclear whether the Birmingham project remained active during that year or whether the geographic activity description reflects earlier delivery.
- There is no sufficiently specific, current evidence to assign activity to any specific Birmingham wards or to City Centre.
- The Solihull address is recorded as the charity contact address, not evidence of a Birmingham operational site. The Charity Commission also records that the charity does not own or lease land or property.
- No material partnerships extending the organisation's Birmingham operational reach were identified in the official records.
Additional evidence needed
- A current project or impact report identifying active Birmingham delivery locations, service dates and the communities served.
- Confirmation from the organisation of whether the Family and Community Learning Project is currently active, completed or paused.
- Named venues, schools, community organisations or delivery partners that would allow activity to be located to specific Birmingham wards.
- Current annual-return narrative or accounts explaining activity after 31 March 2025 and the reason for the reported nil income and expenditure.

Observations
Family learning appears to be an inclusion strategy
The available evidence suggests that the organisation treats parents’ ability to understand and support children’s learning as a practical means of reducing social exclusion.
Why it matters
This positions the organisation as working on a relationship around the child—between family, education and community—rather than only delivering support directly to children.

The organisation may bridge educational and deprivation-related needs
Its remit combines education, poverty relief, disability and social inclusion, suggesting it may recognise that barriers to participation are interconnected rather than purely educational.
Why it matters
This broad framing could make Mansura Foundation a potentially useful connector for organisations whose work spans family support, disability, advice and community participation.

Minority ethnic community focus is specific, but beneficiary reach is unclear
The named project indicates targeted work with minority ethnic communities in two Birmingham areas, while the formal beneficiary categories are much broader.
Why it matters
This raises a useful question about whether the organisation has a deliberate place-based and culturally responsive model, or whether this was one project within a wider service pattern.
