**What to expect:** 🤔
Get ready for a relaxed and friendly evening social at The Holly Bush!

This event is open to everyone, so you can expect a lively, yet laid-back atmosphere, with a diverse mix of people. whether you're new to Oxford, looking to expand your social circle, or simply fancy a pleasant evening out, you'll be warmly welcomed.

**Important Information:** ⚠️

* There is no set time for members to arrive and/or leave this event.
* Repeated no-shows or instances of gatecrashing may result in removal from future group events.
* Drinking alcohol is optional

**The Plan:** 💪🏻
Once the host has arrived at The Holly Bush, the location of where we are located will be shared in the comments. From then on, we will socialise at the venue throughout the night, until the event comes to a close.

**Q&A** 👀
Here are the answers to the most common asked questions relating to this event:

**I'm new and feel anxious. Is this group not right for me?** 😨
Attending for the first time is pushing you out of your comfort zone, so it is normal to feel anxious. The good news is you won't be alone as we always have a mixture of new and old faces. Regulars are very welcoming and it takes only 2-4 events for most members to feel settled in. Our advice is to give it shot and reflect afterwards if the event is right for you.

**How will I find you?** 🧐
Once the organiser arrives, they will share in the comments roughly where we are located, with a description of what they are wearing. If the venue has table numbers, we will also mention them.

**Is this a dating event?** 👩‍❤️‍👨
In short, this is not a dating event. Despite this, we also recognise and accept that relationships do form in social settings. Therefore, whilst we accept that dates will develop, if your primary goal for attending is purely to find your soulmate, this event will not be the best fit for you.

**Do I have to drink alcohol?** 🍻
There are no conditions to what you choose to drink, with some main organisers being non-alcoholic drinkers.

**Where will I be able to park?** 🚗
Whilst it's not impossible to find parking in Oxford, you will find yourself incredibly limited. Therefore, we don't have any recommendations other than stop at the most convenient Park & Ride.

**Are reasonable adjustments considered for members with a disability?** 🧑🏻‍🦽
We will always do our best to make things as convenient as possible for members who require reasonable adjustments. However, so we can try and have your needs met, we would appreciate it if you informed us in advance.

**Can I bring additional people with me?** 👩🏻‍🤝‍👨🏽
Yes you can, but please put them as +1 in your check-in so we can try and find us enough space.

**Will we be off to dance after the event?** 💃🏽
If going out to dance is what you're looking for, you unfortunately won't see this arranged by the event organisers. However, members are welcome to organise additional activities once the event is over.

**Group Rules** 📝
These are the policies in place for the group:

**1) Be respectful of others** 🙏🏼
You'll encounter diverse individuals, some of whom you may not connect with immediately. Instead of arguing, acknowledge your differences. Refrain from harassing members, whether in person or on social media, outside of events.

**2) Appreciate what the organisers do** ❤️
Please remember we are not a business and that all the organisers in the group are hosting events on a voluntary basis. The events we host are for ourselves to enjoy as much as you do.

**3) Have a valid photo of yourself in your profile** 🤳🏾
There have been multiple occasions where members have received inappropriate messages, all from members without photos. To help prevent this from happening, we ask all members to provide a photo of themselves.

**4) Update your attending status correctly.** ✅
Not knowing the correct number of attendees can negatively impact the event. Excessive absences and/or gatecrashing events, without valid reasons, will lead to removal from the group.

**5) Do not take control of events hosted.** 🤐
The organisers already have a plan for the event they are hosting. To prevent any difficulties, respect what the organisers have set up for you. Members are welcome to organise additional activities once the event is over.

**6) Do not advertise your own activities in the group without permission** 🙅🏻
Whilst we are happy to see additional events, they must apply to the group's structure. If you want to advertise any of your events, contact Kevin.
