What we’re about

WE ARE NOT JUST A MEETUP GROUP !
We are a social club that has been running for over 35 years, where we make new friends, meet old friends and try new activities, using meetup to arrange our events.
**Membership Fee ** Unlike most groups on here, we charge a membership fee, (currently £10 per year)., which gives us the ability to underwrite and organise events such as dances, holidays, coach trips, etc. It enables us to cover our meetup fees and public liability insurance, and even to subsidise some events.
What we do - We have a very broad range of events and activities, ranging from pub nights, meals, dancing and theatre trips through to Abseiling, Cycling, Canoeing, Archery, Walking and a book club. We welcome and encourage members to introduce us to new things. We have been holding about 400 events most years.
HOW TO JOIN - You must have a recent head and shoulders only "passport style" photo and your profile must show your first name AND surname, or your application will be rejected.
Once accepted you will be given Introductory membership free for a max of 3 months, during which time we ask you to attend 4 events to meet us and see what we're about. After 4 events, you can apply for Full membership.
How we operate - A committee of elected members deal with the admin and finance of the club, but the events are run for and by the entire membership.

We all joined to meet people - Come along and meet us
