New Heights Charity grew out of local people's commitment to provide services to meet the needs of vulnerable adults and children in the Kingstanding area, an area identified for high levels of deprivation, poverty and need. It is a grassroots charity encouraging community cohesion through promoting positive life experiences and by helping vulnerable people to overcome barriers arising from poverty, age and disability. Its services are designed and delivered by a small staff team of four, 12 elected Trustees and 87 local volunteers.
