Society and Culture

Sites that reflect the make up of the West Midlands Metropolitan Area's* community: its people, its history, and resources and institutions that serve the region's people, such as social service organisations. * This comprises the Metropolitan Boroughs of Sandwell, Dudley, and Solihull, together with the Cities of Birmingham, Coventry, and Wolverhampton. It is distinct from the West Midlands Region, which covers a larger area.

This category is only for ''Society and Culture'' sites which either:

relate to the whole (or a significant part of) the Metropolitan Area
relate to multiple localities within the Metropolitan Area
relate to a single locality which does not have its own category

If your site is related to a single locality which has its own category in the West_Midlands then it should be submitted somewhere under that category -- to the most appropriate topical sub-category if it exists.

If there is an appropriate sub-category of West Midlands: Society and Culture for your site, then it should be submitted under there instead of here.

Genealogy

Sites relating to discussion, research and investigation of family names and history in the West Midlands. This category serves as a pointer to the relevant local categories.

Before you submit to West Midlands > Society > Genealogy please ensure that your site is both topical and covers more than one part of the West Midlands metropolitan area. Sites that cover just one locality (for example, Birmingham or Coventry) will not be listed in this category. If your site covers more than the West Midlands area then please submit to the relevant category at the England level.

Religion

Submit sites about religious organisations or resources for the whole West Midlands here only. Only submit sites about areas within the county if you cannot find a better category elsewhere.
