Welcome to Birmingham and West Midlands Branch

We're a branch of around 1400 members and we are all social and supportive. In 2025 we will be having hybrid meetings in March, April, May, June, September and October on Zoom and at the Birmingham Hippodrome (details will be sent out via our email newsletter before every meeting).

In January, February, November and December our meetings will be online only. The branch will be on our Summer break in July and August, but you can still contact the committee if you need to speak to one of us.
