The Philosophers' Yard

About Us

Throughout history, humankind has grappled with life's big questions: Who am I? Does life has meaning or purpose? And how can I make best use of my fleeting time?

Meeting in central Birmingham (and online), The Philosophers' Yard creates a balanced, welcoming, and engaging space to explore important topics for our individual and collective existence.

Our Values

Curiosity

We seek to challenge and expand our thinking about ourselves and the world around us, in a respectful manner.
We value open and honest communication, including by asking questions and saying when we do not have answers.

Creativity

We act in ways that develop self-understanding and cultivate happiness.
We provide opportunities to explore and use practices that foster greater self awareness and promote personal growth, and to maintain a safe hub for this exploration to take place.

Community

We value community and are committed to welcoming difference and diversity of thought.
We have zero tolerance for any form of hate speech, discrimination, or violent language, behaviour, or actions.
