AdminHistory'Established in 1935, the Birmingham Jewish Recorder is the medium of communal communications. It is published monthly and features reports on communal events, details of communal societies and includes articles about Israel and of general interest. Most Recorders are delivered by hand on the first of every month and a number are posted to overseas readers and those living outside the Birmingham/Solihull area. It has an estimated readership of over 1500.

Among The Recorder's regular features are a 'Youth Scene' page; an education page compiled by the local Jewish school, King David; 'Rovings', which includes vignettes of particular local interest; Israel news compiled by the Israel Information Centre; a Bridge page; a Crossword and of course, editorials and special feature articles.

The Recorder is not affiliated to any of the local synagogues and attempts at all times to present a true and impartial picture of the many interests and activities within the community. It has always been a strong supporter of Israel and offers a truthful presentation of communal life as highlighted through the pages of its monthly issues. At its annual general meeting, the Tudor Baron Trophy is presented to a writer who has contributed an article of particular interest and literary standard and the Joseph Cohen Trophy is presented to a writer who has contributed a series of articles during the year.'
