What we’re about
Hi there,
The purpose of this group is to create a welcoming, non- judgemental environment, in which people can meet others and enjoy themselves.
Everybody is welcome; regardless of age, gender and whether or not they have a disability. The only requirement is that they have a respectful attitude towards other members of the group. I’m not a fan of people who create numerous unnecessary rules and regulations, in order to yield a false sense of power or importance (Unfortunately there’s a fair bit of it on this site).
It was originally a public group but I was persuaded to change it to private by a former member. Unfortunately this is irreversible; as their are definitely pros and cons of both. Generally I try to put up a wide array of different events such as walks, museums and live drinking nights. I prefer to see the group as a way of helping people who may be new to the area, or who don’t get out and about much and would like to meet new people as a result etc.
