What we’re about
Welcome to Brighton and Sussex Social Club!
Make new friends at Brighton and Sussex Social!
Most of our members are in the 50+ age bracket but we welcome people of any age. We are a friendly social group and not a dating group. We have a range of events from walks to picnics, theatre trips to treasure trials. Events are put on by members and everyone is asked to put on two events a year. This could be a cinema visit or a stroll, anything goes really.
As a member you will have access to all our events. You will also have access to our national organisation AIVC http://www.ivc.org.uk/ where you can join in events and holidays across the country.
How to join:
1. On our Meetup page, follow the guidelines in ‘what we are about’. You then need to click ‘request to join’. It will ask you the following questions:
We ask you to verify yourself, by sending us an email to: membership@brightonsussexsocial.org.uk. We also ask for a phone number, this is in case of any emergencies.
We also ask you to put a recognisable photo of yourself on your Meetup profile so event organisers can recognise you.
We will then send you our bank details for you to pay your £10 membership fee. Once we have received this, it will allow you to access all our events up to 31 March the following year.
Please note that as part of your £10.00, we often subsidise some events (often Christmas) or supply the food at some events such as a picnic and at our AGM. We also pay a fee to AIVC our national organisation.
Booking events:
2. If you are unable to attend an event, please amend your RSVP to NO so others can fill your space and attend. No-shows at events, without amending your RSVP can result in cancellation of your membership.
All events are attended at your own risk.
Please ensure you have your Meetup ‘chat’ turned on in your profile, to enable us to contact you.
Code of conduct:
3. The club has zero tolerance for any kind of discrimination or behaviour designed to make others feel uncomfortable.
We look forward to receiving your request to join us and your information, and we hope to see you at events soon.
