London 20 & 30s Community | The Great Friendship Project

On Wednesday 2nd September, we're excited to be hosting our latest FREE Board Games Night, exclusively for 20s and 30s 🎲

Yep, that's right - we're back and as always, we've booked out a big private space in central London and we’ve got a fantastic collection of some of the most popular games that you’ll be able to choose from.

We’ve got some of the most popular classics like Codenames and Exploding Kittens, social deduction favourites like Avalon and Werewolf, to crowd-pleasers like Wavelength and Chameleon 🦎

On top of this, you're also welcome to bring your own games that you love or wanting to play - providing they are short, easy to learn and accessible games for 6+ players.

Best of all, over the course of the evening, you'll be able to mix around, meet lots of other 20s and 30s whilst playing a range of different games.

So if you're looking to play some games, meet new people, and have a laugh then we'd love to have you join us for this ❤️

WHERE/WHEN

To kick off the weekend in style, we're excited to be bringing back one of our most unique Friday night socials... our latest Monopoly Pub Race!

If you didn't join us back for the last one - this team game is an exciting hybrid of a photo hunt, a pub crawl and the famous family board game, Monopoly 🎲

The game is played on a virtual Monopoly board featuring 30 real pubs across Central London 🍻

And in teams, you'll be racing against to buy properties, complete colour sets and become the first team to collect two full sets.

To claim a property, your team simply needs to visit the pub and have at least one person buy a drink (soft drinks allowed).

But this isn't just about speed - strategy is just as important. You'll be able to steal properties from rival teams, block their progress, and keep track of everyone's moves on a live game board throughout the evening.

If no team completes two sets before time runs out, the team with the highest total property value will be crowned the champions, with prizes up for grabs for the winners 🏆

But of course, it is not just about the game - the evening will also provide you with a chance to connect with lots of like-minded 20s and 30s, whilst enjoying an unforgettable start to the weekend.

WHERE/WHEN

It’s here. Another Sunday and we’ve got your weekend sorted again with another summer Social Walk and Pub trip, exclusively for 20s and 30s ☀️

For our latest Sunday walk, we’ll be visiting one of the most beautiful walking spots in South West London, Wimbledon Common 🌳

Before heading off on the hike, as always - you'll be allocated a group for an initial mix of fun and light-hearted games, designed to help you break the ice and get to know your fellow walkers a little better before we set off.

After the games and everyone is warmed up for walk, we’ll then set off on our 2-3 hour hike across the common 🥾

From there, we will exploring some of the most scenic nature trails across the common, taking in the array of woodland, heathland, ponds, and wildlife the common has to offer.

We will then cross the green leafy expanses of Putney Heath, before finishing up at a nearby pub where you can grab a drink, rest your legs and get to know your fellow hikers a bit better 🍻

It should another great summer afternoon stroll - although always, we will be having to cap numbers for this event and so do make sure you nab your place as soon as you can!

WHERE/WHEN WE WILL MEET

Meet Point - South East Entrance/Corner, Wimbledon Common, London SW19 5AX

We don't do boring Wednesdays, and on 9th September we're excited to be heading to Shoreditch for another Escape Room adventure 🕵️

For this latest challenge night, we've booked out three private rooms at Escape Plan - one of the highest-rated escape room venues in the city, with thousands of 5* reviews.

At Escape Plan, all three rooms are set against a fascinating WW2 backdrop - from breaking out of a prisoner of war camp to fighting in the Battle of Britain.

And there's a range of realistic props and costumes to help you properly immerse yourself in the story and transport you back in time.

And you'll need your wits about you: as you'll have just 60 minutes to find the clues, crack the puzzles and complete the mission before time runs out ⏱️

And once you're out (or not!), there'll be an option to head for a drink nearby, swap stories fancy it, and get to know your fellow escapees a little better.

Best of all: escape rooms across London can easily cost over £35, but we've secured an amazing deal, so the whole evening is just £17.15pp 💛

It should be a great night, but as always, spaces are limited - so make sure you nab yours before spots go!
