Wolverhampton Good Times

Welcome to Wolverhampton Good Times!

We're a friendly bunch and we arrange a lot of interesting events for you lovely people which include meals, night's out for drinks, live music, comedy clubs, walks, escape rooms, sports events ... the list goes on.

All are welcome to join, there are no restrictions here.  All that we ask is that you adhere to the following Code of Conduct:

1. Respect all members regardless of age, race, gender, sexual orientation or disability. 

 2. Do not behave inappropriately towards other members or Hosts, this includes language, physical touching or unsolicited messages.  Inappropriate behaviour may result in removal from the group.

 3. If you RSVP to events as "Going" and can no longer attend please change your RSVP to "Not Going" as soon as possible. If you RSVP as "Going" and do not attend and do not change your RSVP to "Not Going", you will be flagged as a "No Show".  Repeated no-showers are logged and will be removed from the group. 

 4. You do not need to RSVP as "Not Going" if you have no intention of attending an event. "Not Going" is only needed if you were originally going but can no longer attend an event.

 5. If you are not sure whether you will be able to attend an event or not but would still like to keep track of the event so that you don't forget about it then you can save the event to your "Saved" list by clicking on the star symbol (*) at the top of the screen.  The event then shows in your saved list and should you closer to the time time find that you can attend, you can then submit your RSVP.  

 6. DO NOT block spaces on events by submitting an RSVP as "Going" when you are not confident that you can attend.

 7. The discussion board and comments are not a place for negativity or harassment, if someone is being deliberately difficult, or posts messages that are not in keeping with the spirit of the group they will be removed from the group. 

 8. If you have any concerns then please do direct message myself or one of our lovely co-organisers. 

 9. This is your group and therefore if events don't appeal to you, please make constructive suggestions and we will try to accommodate. 

 10. We understand that it can be nerve-wracking attending events sometimes, especially for the first time or if you are on your own. If you let us know we will try to help . 

 11. Your member profile picture must be a clear face picture of you only, without filters or anything else that obscures your identity.  After joining the group, do not change your picture to one that does not comply with the group rules.  Your picture must be a recent picture of you only and must show your face clearly. This is so that host's can identify you when you arrive at events.

 12. If a group Admin (Organiser, Co-Organiser, Host, etc) messages you about an event or your conduct and the message requires a response from you, you must respond in a timely manner.

 13. The hosts invest a lot of their own personal time which they give up freely to research and post thorough and comprehensive event listings which include requirements for deadlines, payments and other criteria.  Please ensure you read the event details (not just the title) before submitting your RSVP.  

 14. Attendance figures are monitored by the groups Leadership team and we will periodically remove inactive members who have not attended a Meetup with this group for long periods of time, this includes new members who have not yet attended an event.  We need new members to have attended at lease 1 event within 3 months of joining the group.

We would encourage you to come along to one of our "Monthly Mingles" or the "Newbies Event", they are a great way to see what we're all about.

See you soon!

Fancy having some fun and widening your social network?

We are a friendly bunch of all ages from in and around the Midlands region, who share a common interest in meeting people and making friends.

We have a monthly meetup which is usually on the last Friday of every month. I would encourage you to take the time to have a look through our calendar to see what is already planned, as well as those listed we will be arranging many more social events throughout the year (meals, sports days, theatre, picnics, nights out etc). 

Suggestions for possible events or ideas are always very welcome.

It can be quite daunting to join something like this, but remember most members feel the same and everyone is looking for the same thing which is meeting new people and getting out more. The first time you come out with us you may feel apprehensive about meeting 'strangers' but, the second time it will be like meeting old friends!

It is free to join and there is no commitment to attend. The only thing we do ask is that you add your first name, a photo of yourself and a brief intro. This is just to make it easier for you to attend events and make the most of the group. You just click on an event that you want to attend and press the ‘RSVP’ button. It's that simple! You are able to remove your profile at any point too if this is not for you, so if you are interested, sign up and see what you think.

Go on, take the plunge and join! You have nothing to lose but a whole new exciting social life and lots of new wonderful people in your life to gain!!

Any questions, please feel free to email one of the organisers: BirminghamSocial@gmail.com

We look forward to meeting you soon!

Don

Couple of house rules:

This is not a dating group.

If guests come more than twice, they do need to create their own profiles accordingly.

As of the start of 2013 for new members, unless you have extenuating circumstances which you make the organiser aware of. When requesting membership; can you please ensure you have a clear photo of yourself and fill in the questions when joining and keep it shown. This is so we can all recognise each other at events and make the site a safer place all round. Many thanks.

And finally anyone who uses this group for advertising, self promotion, sponsorship or fund raising will be removed.

BACKABUSH BIRMINGHAM - Hiking & Outdoor Adventure Group

Birmingham, 43

BACKABUSH BIRMINGHAM - Hiking & Outdoor Adventure Group
**Who are we and how did it all begin?**  Backabush is the longest established hiking and outdoor adventure Meetup group in Britain. Our group was originally created back in 2002 (actually before we were on Meetup) by a multinational group of friends who loved hiking and wanted to get more out of our weekends and holidays. We wanted to share our heartfelt passion for the great outdoors and enthusiasm with others. For some years Backabush was an informal, unincorporated association managed by the founders for the benefit of its members. Our group grew rapidly in those early years and in 2008, following legal advice we decided it would be wise and prudent to become a registered company to protect our organisers and our members. Following this review and the formation of the limited company, our members can now pursue their legitimate activities and aims with complete peace of mind. **Why do we do it?** We love the outdoors! The primary motivation is fun (not profit) which means that our trips offer exceptional value for money. We continue as a group with the same ethos of organising events and trips for the benefit of our members. This is what we love and we are passionate about what we do. We will always endeavour to be budget conscious and price our activities only to cover necessary expenses. **What do we do?**  Over the years we have hiked and explored the National Parks and areas of outstanding natural beauty in Britain and abroad. It may all have started years ago with a few hiking friends gathering for a weekend in a scruffy camping barn somewhere rural and pretty but it has developed a lot from there. Backabush has been hiking and enjoying outdoor adventure for well over a decade now and over this time we have organised literally hundreds of hiking trips throughout Great Britain. We have enjoyed visits to the Lake District, Snowdonia, Scotland, the Brecon Beacons, the Pembrokeshire Coast, Cornwall, the Peak District, the Yorkshire Dales, Dartmoor, Exmoor, the Lincolnshire Wolds, the Cambrian mountains, the Wye Valley, the Forest of Dean, the North York Moors, the New Forest, the South Downs, the Malvern Hills, the Shropshire Hills, the South Downs, the Cotswolds, the Chiltern Hills, the Jurassic Coast, the Gower Peninsula, the Pennines, the Isle of Skye, Loch Ness, Ben Nevis, Glen Coe, the Isle of Arran, Glen Shiel, Torridon etc, etc, etc. National trails and long distance paths in Britain are another favourite of ours and to date we have completed the full length of Hadrian's Wall Path, the West Highland Way, the Cumbria Way, the Herriot Way and Wainwright's Coast to Coast. Although we have yet to complete the full length of many we have also enjoyed hiking sections of the Cotswold Way, Pennine Way, Offa's Dyke Path, Limestone Way, Allerdale Ramble, South West Coast Path, Great Glen Way, Monsal Trail, South Downs Way, Ridgeway, Thames Path and many, many others.  We were also trailblazers when it came to offering exciting outdoor adventures overseas. Back in 2009 we organised our very first foreign trip when we headed down into Africa to climb Mt Toubkal, the highest summit in Morocco. Next we trekked in Nepal, climbing over a 5000+ metre pass linking the Langtang and Helambu valleys. Since these early treks we went on to organise things like via ferrata holidays in the Italian Dolomites, or hiking trips to the French Alps and Jura mountains. We also love 'hut to hut' trekking and have so far completed every step of the Tour du Mt Blanc, summited Monte Perdido in the Ordessa National Park and trekked for days in the French Pyrenees to reach the awe inspiring Cirque de Gavarnie. More recently we even organised trips to Slovakia to seek out winter snowshoeing in the High Tatras and gorge scrambling in the Paradise National Park. There are many other adventures we could mention. No other Meetup group offers adventure like this! **How do the logistics work?** We know our members are busy people so we do our best to provide a complete package for you. Backabush will research the locations, the hikes, book the accommodation and make a plan for all the meals. If you do not own a car we will help you to find transport or a lift share. You just need to communicate with the organiser who will help to co-ordinate things with you. With a little co-operation from our members it all works very well and allows us to keep offering new locations and new hikes, year after year. Although we might return to some amazing National Parks quite regularly we always endeavour to find new venues and plan entirely new hikes. If you check out our past events you will see that we offer unrivalled variety in the locations we visit. **What are the hikes like?** On every Backabush trip we try to provide a choice of hikes each day. Obviously we will choose the from most beautiful and best loved hikes in any given area. These hikes tend to be of various length, duration and difficulty. The idea is that each person can choose the hike that best suits their fitness, experience and interests. It is true that Backabush has a reputation within the Meetup community for offering longer and more challenging hikes but we always also offer more moderate options for those seeking a more relaxed day outdoors. Generally speaking we would say that anyone who can hike for 10 miles in hilly terrain should be fine on our trips. If you have any concerns please don't hesitate to contact us to ask questions.  **What about safety?** Safety is always our number one priority. Although we can never make the outdoor environment entirely safe there are many steps that can be taken to minimise risk. Our team of outdoor activity leaders have many, many years of leadership experience and have received extensive outdoor training. Between all of our leaders we have years of military experience, ambulance work or mountain guiding. Our principal leadership team are Mountain Leader trained at Plas-y-Brenin (the National Mountain Sports Centre) in North Wales and Winter Skills trained at Glenmore Lodge in Scotland. We regularly update our first aid qualifications and carry the required emergency aid equipment for wilderness situations. Some of us have taught or assisted on micro-navigation training courses and all have excellent route finding skills regardless of visibility or weather. Additional our experience extends to high altitude mountaineering in several continents, be it summiting 6000+ metre peaks in the Andes, conquering the highest mountains in Africa or completing month long high altitude treks in the Himalayas.   We take our 'duty of care' of very seriously and are trained to deal with outdoor emergencies. Sometimes we hire in specific skills as necessary in the form of fully qualified instructors for things like rock climbing, caving, coasteering, kayaking, horse riding, ghyll scrambling or technical mountaineering. For some foreign trips we will either provide logistical support for safe self guided mountain trekking or hire International Mountain Leaders as deemed necessary.  **Who joins our trips?** Although most people in the group are in their 20s, 30s and 40s age is not an issue to us - a fun loving and adventurous nature is more important. It is not uncommon to have over a dozen different nationalities represented in a single gathering. Our groups of hikers and outdoor adventurers vary in size but on every trip some people will be regulars and some first timers. Its a great way to make new hiking friends and you need not worry about coming alone as you will always be made to feel welcome. What we all have in common is a love of all kinds of outdoor activity including hiking, trekking, hill walking, mountaineering, scrambling, camping, canoeing, canyoning, kayaking, rock climbing, scuba diving, caving, coasteering, mountain biking and just about anything else that offers some outdoor adventure. We are a very active bunch! We hope YOU will join us sometime soon. **Positive vibes!** **The Backabush Crew & Hiking Team** Contact Geoff & Nathan backabushxplorers@yahoo.com nathancapay@googlemail.com
