Who We Are

Our organisation is a hub of youth work working closely with our partners to provide a holistic and integrated service to young people and provide opportunities that inspire and motivate them to be the best they can.
About T ROADZ

T ROADZ is an aspiring rapper who regularly attends The Pump to record music. His aspirations were able to flourish through The Pump as he was able to regularly access the recording studio for free, he could access the studio to work on his music regularly and this gave Tyreece the opportunity to practice, which would then give him the courage to perform for live audiences.
Makerspace

Our new Makerspace is a brand new space at The Pump established to inspire and innovate, though a fully-kitted workshop giving you the power to turn ideas and concepts into reality.
History

The Pump, formerly known as the Shard End Community Building Project (SECBP), is the realisation of a vision of HRH The Prince of Wales, who wanted to create an outstanding building which would not only act as a focus and inspiration for the personal development of young people, but would also be designed and built by young people.

The History of Grime

The History of Grime Project is a passion project conceived by our very own young people.
