The records of the Middlemore Homes at Birmingham City Archives are subject to the following access provisions:

Records less than 75 years old (with the exception of annual reports and published materials) are closed. Child
migrants and their family members can obtain information from closed records by contacting the Birmingham City
Council Support After Adoption Team. Individuals will need to submit a written inquiry giving as much
information as possible about the child. If the inquiry is from the child migrant themselves the Team will ask for
proof of identity. If the inquiry is from a family member they will need to supply proof of death of the original
child migrant. This inquiry should be directed to:
Support After Adoption Team
2nd Floor Tamebridge House
Tamebridge Industrial Estate
Aldridge Road
Perry Barr
Birmingham B42 2TX
Fax: 0121 675 2296
E-mail: [email protected]

Records between 75 and 100 years old are open for consultation provided the researcher has signed the
‘Application for Access’ form provided by Library and Archives Canada, agreeing not to disclose information
which would identify living individuals or constitute an unwarranted invasion of privacy for those individuals.

Records over 100 years are open and can be consulted by members of the public.
Permission to obtain photocopies of any documents less than 75 years old must be obtained in writing from the Birmingham
City Archives Support After Adoption Team at the address stated above.
