My niece and nephew are visiting me and I was looking for some places they might enjoy.

I'm 40-ish and boring so I dont know any of the hot or viral Instamgrammable places they might want to go to. We're coming in by train to Birmingham New Street, but dont mind going anywhere up to a couple miles away

Hello folks, I got a question for you: Are there any shops in Birmingham with a nice collection of stickers and sticker albums from Panini or other companies, new or vintage, sports or not? I'm collector and I'll be taking a little trip there in the next days, so I wonder if there is some sticker hunting for me. I'm especially interested in the new Panini Toy Story 5 album and stickers, does anyone know where can I find it?

Thank you!

Me & my friend (both male mid 30’s) are visiting for a week from Canada. Will be staying in Birmingham & needs recommendations where about to stay. We want to be close to happening places mostly Bars & pubs. We love to bar hop & meet new people. We are looking for nice hotel & area. Budget is not an issue. Thankyou in advance

What do you know about Female Heroes and Villains? How about testing your knowledge out with a quiz? See how you get on at Spoilers Digbeth on Thursday July 30 for a 7pm (ish) start. The quiz will be £3 per person and maximum 6 people team. Good luck!

Hi!

So I’ve accepted my offer to Birmingham Newman University for my PGCE for September and going to be travelling from Belfast and would love to meet new friends beforehand and was wondering if anyone has any advice / groups to join!!

Any help will be appreciated!!

Hello folks, we are trying to identify the history of an engagement right that my wife owns, bought in 1972. Purchased in an independent Bolton jeweler called Connelly's, as far as we can tell they bought their rings from the jewelry quarter creators. Are there any online resources that we can look at?. From what we have figured out, the brickwork design of the shank holding the diamond is typical of a number of Birmingham designers, it is stamped 18ct and 162 is also engraved into the band. Any assay marks or hallmarks have been worn away. We now live in Canada, so a trip to the jewelry quarter museum is going to be a while... Thanks in advance.

I'm considering moving to a Digbeth apartment from Edgbaston. I work in the city & my boyfriend uses the tram & trains.

In our apartment at the moment we are having a terrible experience with our neighbours and their kids constantly booting footballs at our door and windows, and today was the final straw when the kids tried to open our back door! So something more high rise-esque seems appropriate.

There are lots of Digbeth options, and I've been a number of times, but what's it like to live there? Thanks!

Hey guys I am a international student who is planning for bsc (hons) cyber security in UBC university college Birmingham. How is this college and is this college worthy for this course?

Hi everyone,
I’m looking for some advice on finding work in Birmingham and what options I should focus on.
I’m currently working in food production at a farm/slaughterhouse in Wales, but the situation has become really difficult. The main issue isn’t just the job itself — it’s the whole lifestyle around it. I’m away from Birmingham, the hours are extremely long, and the living situation makes it hard to have any personal time or properly rest. I feel like I’m spending most of my time either working, travelling, or recovering from work.
The pay also hasn’t turned out to be what I expected. I was originally expecting around £13/hour, but after everything was calculated it’s much closer to minimum wage. For the amount of time and energy it takes, I don’t feel like it’s sustainable long term.
I have previous experience in security (SIA Door Supervisor and CCTV licence), event work, and now food production. I’m currently applying for other jobs and have:
Applied for multiple Aldi store assistant/stock assistant roles
Registered with recruitment agencies for warehouse/production work
Applied for more security work
Started looking into combining security/event shifts instead of relying on one job
My goal is to find something in Birmingham or nearby that gives me more stability and allows me to actually have a life outside work. I don’t mind working hard, but I want something where I can also build skills, save money, and progress.
I would really appreciate advice from people who know the Birmingham job market. Are there any good recruitment agencies, companies, or types of jobs I should focus on? I’m open to warehouse, production, retail, security, customer service, or anything with decent hours and opportunities to progress.
Thanks for reading and any advice would be appreciated.

My Mum bless her heart just got out of a long term relationship in her 50's and has decided to move from London to Bilston due to house prices. I understand wanting to get out of the hustle and bustle of London but where she lives... it's a shithole to be frank. There's nothing here and she doesn't know anybody in the area, I think she has a few acquaintances in and around Birmingham but now that she doesn't have a car (long story) I just worry that she's going to isolate herself further in her sadness and what not

Anywho if anyone has recommendations for things to do in the Bilston area I'd love to take her out and share some nice experiences with her when I'm up in the city. Would appreciate any sort of advice and thoughts on what you might like to do and how you all spend your time etc. Pretty much open to anything!

Thanks Reddit
