What does home mean to you?

Updated: Jul 3, 2023

The SPRINT Project team are excited to share that the Making home a place to be exhibition is now open until 27th November at The Exchange, Centenary Square Birmingham.


The team have been working alongside other researchers, community projects and the exhibition design team to increase awareness of and challenge stereotypes of those who experience of home is considered outside of societal norms. This free exhibition considers home in the context of:

  • Homelessness

  • Refugees and trafficking

  • Elderly care outside the family home

The exhibition features a short introduction to the My Strengths Training for Life™ (MST4Life™) project that was co-produced with the SPRINT Project team and our community partners St Basils who support young people (aged 16-25) experiencing or at risk of homelessness across Birmingham and the West Midlands.
