Coffee Connections (20s 30s and 40s)

Coffee Connections is a group for anyone over 20 and under 50 who is new/familiar to Glasgow, wishes to meet new people and make friends in a relaxed, welcoming environment over a cup of coffee/tea.

We aim to achieve this with regular meetups in familiar places as well as exploring the many interesting cafes Glasgow has. This group is also ideal for those wanting to practice their conversational English in a real-life environment. From time to time we may also explore new places and do activities together.

We look forward to seeing you and if you know any cafes or places we could meet up, please tell us. 😊 We hope to see you soon.

To become a member of this group:

1. You will need to have a profile photo fully showing your face - sorry no avatars or any photos that doesn't show your face, including wearing sunglasses, will lead to automatic decline of your join request.
2. Answer our series of short questions when requesting to join. This helps us understand why you're joining and what your expectations are for this group.
3. This group is primarily aimed for those living in and around Glasgow. We welcome anyone from further afield but we expect you to be able to travel to our meetups.

Please note that approval or declining join requests for this group is entirely at the discretion of the group organisers.

You agree to the following rules by being a Coffee Connections member:

1. We expect our members to treat each other with respect, to transparently communicate with the event hosts and group organisers, especially if you cannot attend the event or anything that might affect your membership of the group. Of course, equally important, we want you to enjoy yourself!

2. Anyone whose conduct is malicious, deceptive, unacceptable, consistently makes others uncomfortable and/or goes against treating others with respect may be investigated by the group organisers and sanctions ranging from warnings to removal or being banned from this group may be applied.

3. To remain a Coffee Connections member, we expect you to attend at least one meetup in a 12 month period. Otherwise you can be removed from the group following a membership review by the group organisers. If you are removed but circumstances change at a later date, you are welcome to re-join the group.

4. Before you RSVP to a meetup, we expect you to read it's information and any T&Cs set. When you RSVP, we assume you have read, understood and accept the meetup details and any specific T&Cs. Please contact the meetup hosts if there's anything you're unsure about.

5. If you're unable to attend a meetup, then please change your RSVP to "not going" or let the event hosts know asap if unable to do so. You can do this up to the day before the meetup without further explanation.

   If you change your RSVP on the day of the meetup we will require a valid reason. Valid reasons such as family emergencies, illness, childcare and other unforeseen circumstances will be considered on a case-by-case basis. All of this is encourages our members to be courteous, reduce incidences of flaking, allows fair opportunities for our members to attend, and also helps the event hosts gauge attendance.

6. You will be marked as a no show if you RSVP but do not physically attend the meetup and did not communicate your absence with the meetup hosts.

7. You will also be marked as a no show if you change your RSVP to "not going" on the day of the meetup without providing a valid reason as mentioned in rule 5.

8. If you no show on 3 occasions in a 12 month period, starting from your first no show, then you will removed from the group, after a review of your membership by the group organisers.
