What we’re about

When most of your close friends couple up, all the things you used to enjoy together - crazy spontaneous nights out, grabbing drinks, weekend trips, dinners, and shared hobbies can start to fade. Sound familiar?

But you shouldn't have to miss out on the things you love just because your friends’ lives have shifted. That’s exactly why this group exists - for happy, professional singles who want to keep their social lives vibrant and full of connection. Whether it’s a night of karaoke and dancing, a weekend getaway, or simply finding someone to play tennis with, this group is about sharing those moments with others who get it.

It’s also perfect for single people who have moved to London for work or study but couldn't bring their friends with them! So if you're looking to meet like-minded people and build a social circle from scratch, you’re in the right place.

So come join our events—and live life to the fullest!

Warm Regards

More details about our community:
Our events are aged at working professionals between 25-50. We tend to have a fairly even gender split, with a focus on single friends. We create an low pressure environment for meeting new people. The conversation is always great and engaging

One of the things we've noticed is what makes our events different is everyone is keen to chat to all. If you are feeling a bit nervous attending an event, here are some tips:

Let the Host Help You Connect When you arrive, reach for the host. We're here to take the pressure off and do the hard work for you - not just by introducing you to fellow attendees, but also getting to know a bit about you. That way, we can help you meet like-minded people that you will have a natural synergy with
Lower the Stakes You don’t need to meet your future best friend (or if you're looking - your soulmate). One good engaging and fun conversation is a win. Shift your mindset from “I need to impress” to “I’m here to connect and learn.” Curiosity is more powerful than charisma and way more fun.
Be Yourself The best, most lasting friendships are born from authenticity in terms of perssonality as well as likes and dislikes. Don’t worry about being impressive - just be real. Talk about your hobbies, passions, and what you like to do to have fun and relax. Things will naturally lights up when you meet your tribe
Keep Moving Give every conversation a chance, but don’t feel obligated to stay stuck in one. If after 10 minutes it’s not clicking, politely move on. The goal is to mingle, explore, and meet a variety of people to do fun things with - that’s how you find your 1 in a hundred people.

Film Synopsis:
Brief Encounter is a 1945 British romantic tragedy film directed by David Lean from a screenplay by Noël Coward, based on his 1936 one-act play Still Life. The film stars Celia Johnson and Trevor Howard in lead roles, alongside Stanley Holloway, Joyce Carey, Cyril Raymond, Everley Gregg and Margaret Barton.
Brief Encounter tells the story of two married strangers living in pre-World War II England, whose chance meeting at a railway station leads to a brief yet intense emotional affair disrupting their otherwise conventional lives.
The film premiered in London on 13 November 1945, followed by its wide release on 25 November. It received widespread critical acclaim, with Johnson and Howard's performances earning high praise, and moderate commercial success at the box-office.
Brief Encounter received three nominations at the 19th Academy Awards for Best Director (Lean), Best Actress (Johnson) and Best Adapted Screenplay. The film was one of eleven winners in the Grand Prix category at the 1946 Cannes Film Festival, while Johnson won the New York Film Critics Circle Award for Best Actress.
Many critics, historians, and scholars consider Brief Encounter as one of the greatest films of all time. In 1999, the British Film Institute ranked it the second-greatest British film of all time. In 2017, a Time Out poll of 150 actors, directors, writers, producers, and critics ranked it the 12th-best British film ever.
