Hobi Make your hobbies therapy London
If you are someone who has been having a tough time with life lately and need to learn more about how you can cope, or just need someone to listen and support you. This is the place for you. Every week I will invite other mental health professionals or experienced individuals to host group sessions, covering journaling, art therapy, cooking and music/dance therapy, specifically showing you how to turn your hobbies into a form of therapy. If you are new to mental wellness, we will also have sessions covering mental wellness and coping skills. Our goal is to help those in need find free or very affordable, help and support without having to pay 100-200$ to get introduced to these forms of therapeutic activities. If this sounds good to you If this sounds good to you, join our support community and learn a thing or two.

Ladies Who Brunch ...and pretty much do everything else too

Twickenham, 17

Ladies Who Brunch ...and pretty much do everything else too

This group is ideal for women who are time-poor and want to be able to drop in to social meetups with like-minded individuals at similar stages in their lives. 


Many women I know struggle with the same problem as they hit their mid-twenties/ thirties with most of their social network spread out all over the country. Many of us have moved from our hometowns, friends are scattered all over the place and long working hours make it pretty difficult to commit to hobbies. This Surrey-based member's group is designed to be low maintenance but there when you want it, as and when you are free.


The group is always open to suggestions for things to do, but will start on the basis of all things from fitness (runs, yoga, walks, gym sessions, dance classes) to coffee catch-ups, new lunch venues, as well as golf, film, fashion and career conversations/ networking. We welcome anyone to host a meetup, so if you'd like to see more events near you or fancy a particular activity, why not have a go? Similarly, If you have any hobbies or passions we could incorporate that you would like to share or teach - we would be thrilled. Just let me, Charlie, know.


Ultimately, this group is a great way to take a moment out of our busy lives, put the world to rights, share hobbies and skills, network, and enjoy those odd free evenings and weekends in the company of some amazing women.


**************************************************** 


Kindly Note: 

- Please ensure first names and photos are included on your profiles for membership consideration 

- We hope that this group will be full of fun, enthusiastic members, please contribute and RSVP where reasonable. It can be daunting attending an event for the first time - but please don't be nervous. The meetups are low-key and filled with genuinely amazing, friendly women.

- We welcome women of any age to join.

- Most of the meetups will be free, but to accommodate any charged events or visiting speakers/experts, some of the meetups may involve a small fee or deposit. Charged events include things such as theatre visits, cinema, lectures, exercise classes etc. Any fees will of course be communicated well in advance.

- To cover the cost of having the meetup group (currently £120/year), the meetup owner, Charlie, may negotiate with paid activity organisers for compensation, such as covering their ticket cost - this won't affect members and any fees will be communicated well in advance.

- If you would like to share a paid event with the group, where funds will go to yourself or someone you know, please ask the group owner, Charlie, in advance.


Any questions, please don't hesitate to get in touch. 

Looking forward to meeting you. 

Thanks and enjoy!

The RAMS! (Rock And Mountain Sports) climbing group.

London, 17

The RAMS! (Rock And Mountain Sports) climbing group.
**Hi, fellow RAMS who were formerly known as the '[London Bouldering group](https://www.meetup.com/london-indoor-bouldering-meetup-group/)'. As the organizer, I have decided to rename this group for several reasons:** 1. The name conflicted with other similarly named groups and I wanted to create a unique identity. 2. Create a group that was embodied in the name, that you guys will be proud to be a part of. 3. Create a group that would be able to lead as a group and individually, through knowledge and experience via structured lessons available to those who are interested. and lastly 4. We can have a mascot that is described by our name :) So from now on it shall be called: The RAMS (Rock And Mountain Sports) climbing group. We will climb at 4 different venues around London, initially. Twice a week at each venue (The Castle Climbing Centre, North - Mile End Climbing Wall, East - The Reach, South and Westway Climbing Wall, West London). There will be visiting guest speakers giving talks that we will hold at the climbing venues. There will be outdoor climbing weekends and weeks too in the UK and abroad. We will also uniquely have courses that will be held to further our skills and technical proficiency for those that are interested in our Climbing Academy. The ethos of meetup.com isn't changing so meeting new people and learning new things is the same. And yes we will also go to the pub afterward for a few beers! *I hope you all get as excited as I am in creating and running this group that will become a leader in this field!* https://discord.gg/T5PnQFvp *p.s. There will be charges for membership and administration.*

Maidenhead Softball Club

Maidenhead, B9

Maidenhead Softball Club

Maidenhead Softball Club (MSC) is a mixed softball club based in Maidenhead and playing in the Windsor & Maidenhead Softball League. Formed in the late 90's from employees at a local technology firm the club has grown from a single team to a club with 3 mixed teams, one female team and 40 members ranging in age from 14 to over 50.

So if you are looking to get into a new, fun sporting activity. Softball is a fun social mixed team sport and can be played by anyone 14+. No experience necessary and no equipment required, Maidenhead Softball Club will provide the equipment and the coaching to help you get activity and enjoying Softball quickly.

What is softball?
Softball is a social and enjoyable sport that’s easy to learn and play, even for people who are not “athletes” or don’t have much experience of team sports – and the game offers particular opportunities for women.

It’s a lot like baseball in terms of the rules, but because the ball is pitched slowly to each batter (as the name implies!), it’s easy to hit the ball and succeed at the sport’s central skill. The fact that men and women play together in the same team and on an equal level gives the sport a social buzz, and most softball games are followed by sessions at the local pub!

Getting Involved
MSC runs weekly sessions on Friday evenings for anyone wishing to give the sport a go. The sessions vary in location and time depending on the season. During the Autumn and Winter it's at Newlands Girls School from 6pm, during Spring and Summer sessions run from 6:30pm at North Maidenhead Cricket Club.
