On 3rd March 2020, we launched our 31st centre and extension project, IntoUniversity Birmingham North, with special guest Sir Lenny Henry. The new centre, in partnership with Birmingham City University, is also IntoUniversity’s first arts-themed centre. It will stimulate children’s understanding and enthusiasm for a wide range of subjects to ensure more young people in the area go on to study at university.

Sir Lenny Henry, Chancellor of Birmingham City University, formally launched the centre at the special event in where students spoke about their IntoUniversity experience so far as well as their hopes for the future, and Dr. Rachel Carr thanked local schools and families for welcoming the centre into the community.
