What we’re about
A group for people under the age of 40 who want to undertake social activities which are either only possible or better as a group. 40 is not a rigid cap but is designed to show the kind of things this group is about and prevent it being dominated by an older generation like other social groups.
The plan is for this group to organise group social activities at least twice a month across both weekday evenings and weekends. The group will be a pay for what you participate in.
Please ensure you RSVP and pay for activities well in advance to allow things to be booked. Activities will NOT be booked until I receive sufficient funds from attendees. Please note a number of activities have minimum numbers and will be cancelled if this amount is not reached.
Meetups will be organised with sufficient notice to receive payment beforehand. Places will only be booked for those who have paid and no refunds offered unless someone else is willing to pay for the place.
Meetup charges for the running of such groups therefore in order to recoup these costs a small admin charge will be added to bookings however I hope to receive group discounts where possible. The price offered reflects this fee
Examples of such activities could be: <br>- Ten Pin Bowling <br>- Board Game evenings <br>- Crazy Golf <br>- Foot Golf <br>- Escape Rooms <br>- Pub Quizzes <br>- Stand up paddle boarding <br>- Paintball <br>- Airsoft <br>- Ice Skating <br>- Archery <br>- Beer Tasting/Brewery Tours <br>- Days Out <br>- Watching sports games <br>- Go Karting <br>- Laser Quest
Depending on interest in activities this could also involve trips out of Swindon or breaks away.
Couples and groups of friends are welcome as long as they are open to meeting new people. Please note this is NOT a singles or a party/clubbing group
Upcoming events (4+)
See all- Storytelling evening in CrickladeNeeds location
An evening storytelling show aimed at grown-ups in an old Stables behind an old pub in the village of Cricklade, near Swindon. Small, low key and friendly event with informal vibe. Drinks can be bought and brought through from the pub.
Meetup organisers Rebecca and Chris, are also the event organisers so a level of self organisation will be needed as we'll be quite busy. Thanks for understanding :)
Afraid there's no public buses that come back to Swindon in the evening.

Sef Townsend - Tales from AL ÁNDALUS or SEFARAD
Sef will share tales from AL ÁNDALUS or SEFARAD - as Medieval Spain was known for 800 years.
It is a journey to a time when Muslims, Christians, and Jews lived together in relative harmony.Kestrel Morton - The Mountain of the Sun
A three-faced god and a golden feather, a whispering serpent and a monk's pilgrimage, a sheep stealer, a hooligan and a change of heart, all watched over by old Granny Chaos. Kestrel Morton weaves a stitch-tongued spell of language, enchanting all who hear it to follow its fantastical thread; into creation myths and wonder tales; through parables and into true stories; dancing on the sharp-knife edge between warnings and wonder in the wild world beyond the world.Our storytelling events usually sell out so please buy your ticket as soon as you can if you plan to come.
