Birmingham IA members from Redditch provided great support for this lively social meeting on Saturday 9th September. We were warmly welcomed at the Ecumenical Centre, and we enjoyed some wide-ranging discussion on several topics. And as always, the refreshments were great!
We're looking forward to seeing everyone in Redditch again next year, but hope that many will join us for our Solihull coffee morning on Sat 4th November, when we will be having a talk by the Fittleworth rep on 'The Ostomist's Kitchen'
Next year's Diary Dates will be sent out at some point in November.

This was one of our members and his wife. Tony Mcnicholas and his wife Marie. Tony had been a member with Birmingham IA since 2019 but he sadly passed in may 2025, Tony was a very popular and committed member of our group. Marie always came with Tony to meetings and events. Marie has very kindly donated a sum of money to help Birmingham IA continue providing others with support and a community as Tony found the group helpful for himself and his wife during his time as a member. We are so greatful to Marie and the rest of Tony family and friends for the donation. And I am sure Tony will be sadly missed within the socials and all the members who knew him.
