Mothers' Union is a Christian organisation which promotes the well-being
of families worldwide. The purpose of the charity is to carry out its
Aims within the Diocese of Birmingham. It does this by:
- developing prayer & spiritual growth in families
- studying and reflecting on family life and marriage and their place
in society
- resourcing our members to take practical action to improve conditions
for families, both nationally and in the communities in which they live.
The past year has been a successful one for Mothers' Union in Birmingham.

- Knitting garments for premature babies in Birmingham hospitals
- Making small gowns for premature or still-born babies
- Supporting a holiday project in Lozells, Birmingham, by providing
stationery and play items
- Supporting refugees by providing household and baby items
- Helping in Winson Green Prison Visits Centre
