LOWDOWN ON FIRTH PARK

Consigning of the Flower Estate, Brushes, Stubbin and the edge of Fir Vale, Firth Park has a real mix of white english and ethnic minority groups. Fir Vale alone has the highest minority percentage (of 50.4%) in the City of Sheffield. Graced by a central Park where the Sidewalk site is based, there are over 2280 kids & teenagers in the area.

The first Sidewalk Site in the UK has an average attendance of 70 kids. At present we vist over 140 kids each week - 95% of whom are of minority ethnic background.
