Our Aim

The Sisters of the City currently also known as Black Women of Birmingham is a community group that was initialised in 2016. The main aim from back then and to this day is to create safe space for black women within the City to network, create and be held in the familiarity of one another.

The aim is to uplift black women, celebrate our wins and connect to support our wellbeing and mental health.

How do we do this? Monthly walks, yoga sessions and other workshops to be announced.
