Have you been hearing about a great new movie that just came out but none of your friends are interested in going? Do you see a fantastic old movie playing on the big screen but too shy to go by yourself? Fancy chatting with fellow movie nuts about the latest flick you just watched? I answered yes to all of these but couldn't find a meet up group in the area dedicate to my fellow movie fans, so I thought I would start one up! The purpose of this group is to go to the movies, old & new, big …

This is a group of people who find the art of conversation to be a meaningful part of our lives.  The idea, started by a group of conversationalist in Seattle, came with me as I moved to Brighton.  I suppose I have put my own imprint on it, and there have been a number of other significant contributors to make Brighton's version of Conversation Cafe what it is.  I find that conversation has an impact.  And our centerpiece group is Conversation Cafe at the Brunswick.  But as an individual life ha …

This is a group for musicians of any standard to get together and enjoy playing folk music together; looking for banjos, mandolins, flutes, bodhrans, guitar, pipes, whistles, accordions, melodicas, spoons... The point isn't to be brilliant; being crap is an option. If you're good it's about being generous; if you're learning it's about discovering how to play together. It's about finding a place to relax as we play too. Pubs, clubs and sessions are, inevitably, about performing. This is more abo …

Brighton Girls on the Go was started by Jen (JC) after her Girls on the Go in London had proved to be so popular. Our group works slightly differently to other meetup groups as all members can organise and arrange events. There is no one person in charge although myself and JC are here to help when needed. Not everyone likes the idea of organising and you don't have to just keep an eye out for the exciting different events coming up and pop along to one! So if you want to try a new sport or acti …

This is a meetup group which I've found to be full of spontaneity.  The change in location each week gives the group something to appreciate, and there is also the change in who shows up.  Usually, we can make up conversation in small talk which progresses to something more meaningful.  And once in a while, I will introduce a preselected topic.  There are meetups on the weekends and during the week.  Any person is able to schedule a meetup.

Perhaps you'd like children but for whatever reason don't have your own yet..? Possibly or definitely you don't want children and that's cool. If you're a child-free woman and fancy meeting up with single and non-single child-free women and NOT talk about sleep routines, mamas & papas flash sales or school catchment areas, and not be made to feel odd or told you don't understand because you're not sprogged up, then th …
