Curious about my Jewish ancestry and want to know more.

I have a Jewish grandma although she still believes in god she never speaks about being Jewish because she was disowned by all her family when she married out the faith in the 50s. Also she really doesn’t like to talk about herself. My mother grew up in a partly Jewish household and integrated into the Jewish community where she lived but not practicing. I myself (25F) was brought up Christian however i believe in a god I know I’m not Christian.

I have always been fascinated about this part of me that is Jewish. What little tradition my mother has told me, I try keep them alive but this is mainly making chicken soup when someone is poorly 🤣 It’s a recipe passed down on my maternal side and feel a strong sense of pride when I do it. Silly I know because everyone makes chicken soup when poorly. I feel a longing to know more but I feel lost. I also worry I would be wasting people time. I’m not sure what I would want and I feel bad saying I’m deeply curious about the religion and want to connected with Jewish people not that I necessarily want to be Jewish.

I know no Jewish people around me and my closest synagogue is 1.5 hours away in Solihull, Birmingham which I would love to visit. I feel a little worried about what my family/friends or would think or how welcomed I would be to learn more, but I know that silly but it does hold me back.

Any suggestions on how I could learn more about the religion or meet Jewish people please let me know. Thank you!
