About United by 2022 Charity

The charity was established in March 2021 as a legacy of the Birmingham Commonwealth Games, with a mission to drive enduring social impact in the West Midlands. It focuses on fairness, inclusivity, and practical support for local challenges, connecting businesses, charities, and communities to champion youth and marginalized groups.

The charity funds projects that deliver activities for young people, with a strong emphasis on disability inclusion, sport, mental health, and community development. It supports individuals and community groups working within the West Midlands region, prioritising initiatives that foster inclusive growth and volunteer-driven change.

Distinctively, the organisation operates as a Games-legacy catalyst, leveraging partnerships to sustain momentum in volunteering and civic pride. It does not fund projects outside the West Midlands.
