Welcome to Birmingham Peoples Centre

Birmingham Peoples Centre provides free employment rights advice to people who live or work in Birmingham. Being a small advice centre, with limited resources, we do not have the capacity to assist everyone who contacts us and we are unable to assist with complex matters. Priority will be given to supporting those facing disciplinary action. Please note that from 1st November 2024 we will only be able to provide general advice on discrimination issues.

If you need urgent advice you might wish to contact the Acas Helpline on 0300 123 1100, or visit their website: www.acas.org.uk/contact. For discrimination issues EASS might be able to assist: https://www.equalityadvisoryservice.com/

Contact Us

Unfortunately, we’re unable to assist everyone who contacts us. When deciding if we can help, we will take into account our workload, available resources and the complexity and merits of the case. If we are not able to help you, wherever possible we will signpost you to other organisations who may be able to assist. Please note, from 1st November 2024 we will only be able to provide general advice on discrimination issues.
