HMP Birmingham is a category B men's prison located in Birmingham, England. It was originally built in 1849 and has undergone several renovations over the years. The prison houses a diverse population of inmates and offers various rehabilitation programs aimed at reducing reoffending. The facility is managed by Serco, a private company that took over its operation in 2011. HMP Birmingham has faced challenges, including reports of violence and overcrowding, prompting ongoing discussions about prison reform and management practices in the UK penal system.
