Welcome to The North American Connection!

The North American Connection is an organisation committed to the support of North Americans living in England.

The Club, while essentially social, provides assistance with integration into the English community, as well as the opportunity for charitable activity. Our goal is to understand the needs of new expatriates and to help bridge their transition into British culture. We are here to provide friendship and support, as well as social, educational and philanthropic activities for our members.

The majority of our members are from the United States or Canada.

The club is open to all women with a particular connection to North America or a specific interest in Club activities. We are a diverse group of women who are here due to a short- or long-term work assignment or who have chosen to relocate to England permanently. We include women who are single, partnered or married. Many members have children - both young and grown-up. We come from all areas of the Midlands but most members reside within an hour's radius of Birmingham, including Solihull, Leamington Spa, Stafford, Derby, Worcester and Stratford-upon-Avon.

Newsflashes

  • Register to Vote with FAWCO-OVF

    Thanks to the Overseas Vote Foundation, military and overseas voters can register to vote and request their ballots for the 2012 election directly from the FAWCO web site (http://www.fawco.org), using the latest secure technology and benefiting from access to continuously updated state-specific information. This year, in order to comply with the MOVE Act of 2009, many states have moved up their primary dates, cutting down time to request primary ballots. In addition, because the legislative language is not perfectly clear, a number of states are interpreting MOVE to mean that voters must request a ballot for every election in the year (primary, federal, special, run-off, etc.). Register to vote or request your ballot today!
