What we’re about
Quirky, interesting, out of the box. That's the the aim of this group, to do something which is not part of someone's normal routine. It may be pretty tame, like forest bathing in Roslin Glen while listening to the birdsong or saving the world one bit of litter at a time or dipping more than a toe into the icy seawater at Portobello.
And it's not just going to be confined to Edinburgh, though probably events won't go beyond Scotland - at least not yet. There's a lot to see in Fife: like walking along the coast, hearing the roar of the waves, smelling the seaweed, and peering cautiously into caves. Or how about East Lothian, an area of castles and seabirds? Or Glasgow, full of exciting nooks and crannies? There's just so much to see, investigate and enjoy.
Two last things - everyone is asked to provide a recognisable photo. It helps people get to know each other. And, finally, this group is free to join. I never have and never will ask for money from members to cover the cost of Meetup fees because, frankly, I get far more fun about of being in and looking after a group than I would get from the actual cash. OK, some events may cost, like a theatre ticket, but that's fair for everyone to buy their own.
