About us
You are either new to meetup or have been on meetup for a long time and are tired of how the social activities have deteriorated in the other meetup groups in London.
We organise roughly about 4 socials in a month closer towards the weekends, so many people can join us after work in the city to mingle with each other. Our venues tend to be easily accessible by public transport.
Our social events tend to be catered towards to about 15 to 20 members at any given time, which gives members an opportunity to mingle with everyone present.
Here is how we will do things differently -
Ever since Covid has occurred the world has changed ways in how we function and operate.
Meeting people of various cultures has become difficult with various restrictions and with online events people rarely have the opportunity of meeting face to face.
We will always have hosts at all our events. You will always be greeted by someone
at all our events and introduced to others.

We will minimise no shows by requiring attendees to pay a deposit in advance.
We will strive to attract a high quality membership who prefer higher quality
venues and events.
We will constantly request members to help us host events and take a lead on
activities so that we have energy and variety.

I very much hope that you will join us and create a vibrant social community
which is close-knit and high quality.
