BSS HIGHGATE LTD

BSS is a dynamic not-for-profit company (Company Reg. 4630683) and registered charity (Charity Reg .1099336) formed in 2003 to deliver much needed sustainable services in the Sparkbrook Ward of Birmingham. Our Director's are trusted members of the community who have been specifically chosen to harness their development and financial skills in running large scale business and community projects.



We purchased 256 Moseley Road, Highgate, a disused former motor components industrial unit and adjoining land and converted it into a major Community Resource Centre. Our venue is a focal point and communication Centre with safe secure parking for up to 100 vehicles including coach parking and disable bays.

The BSS project was made possible via a co-financed partnership between BSS , European Regional Development Funding and European Social Funding.
