What we’re about


Are you interested in the Japanese language and culture?
Would you like to meet like-minded people?
Looking forward to speak real everyday Japanese, not what they teach?

This group welcomes all ages, all Japanese language levels, and all people from all walks of life. There is no requirement to be able to speak or to be learning Japanese to join this group - we welcome you whatever your interest in Japan or Japanese culture.

This group is unaffiliated and independent. The aim is to foster friendship and talk about Japan from an open-minded point of view devoid of any cliches.

As well as our regular social meet ups we attend various Japanese themed events. Examples of past events we have done include dine outs at Japanese restaurants, Japanese film screenings, kimono fashion show, origami workshop, Japanese calligraphy workshop, martial arts, Japanese music concerts, Japanese theatre shows and exhibitions of Japanese art.

**There is a £3 annual fee to join this group in order to cover website costs. New members can attend their first meet up for free and will be asked to make this contribution should they wish to remain a member.**
