British Consul General Andrew Staunton (who has spoken to the BCFR twice in the past two years), along with members of his team, met with the following Birmingham leaders and organizations to discuss ways to deepen our economic, personal, and cultural ties:

Mayor Randall Woodfin

The BCFR remains available to host visitors to Birmingham—virtual and in-person—and serves as unofficial diplomat for the region.
