Theme Love Heart of England Birmingham AA Convention, which began in 1987, has blossomed into a powerful and cherished event in the AA fellowship. Year after year, it continues to grow, welcoming individuals from all walks of life who come together in the spirit of recovery and mutual support. This convention is more than just a gathering—it's a celebration of sobriety and a testament to the strength we find in each other. Rooted deeply in AA’s traditions, it fosters unity, self-support, service, and recovery. Here, we are reminded that none of us walks this journey alone. Together, we find strength, hope, and encouragement as we continue on our path of recovery, one day at a time.
Traditions and Principles

Tradition 1 teaches us that our common welfare comes first because personal recovery depends on AA unity. This is at the heart of the convention, where members gather to support each other and strengthen their sobriety. The convention’s success over the past 30 years reflects this spirit of unity.
In line with Tradition 5, AA’s primary purpose is to carry its message to alcoholics who still suffer. The Heart of England Convention, held in Birmingham, lives this purpose through workshops, speaker meetings, and opportunities for mutual support. These activities help spread the message of hope and recovery.
Tradition 7 reminds us that AA groups should be fully self-supporting. The Heart of England Convention follows this by relying only on registration fees and raffles for funding. This keeps the convention independent and focused on serving the AA fellowship.
