Biggest Christian IRL singles party - Carnaby Street
Grab your ticket here: https://www.fatsoma.com/e/xhpw4l8v/biggest-christian-irl-singles-party-carnaby-street
It’s been four years of BODA, where friendships, flirty IRL feels, snogs, and deep connections have all come together in rooms full of genuinely good people. And now, we’re introducing something a little new as part of our faith dating series.
**Welcome to BODA’s first ever IRL Christian singles social**
A night for Christian singles who want to meet in real life, not through a profile, not through endless DMs or algorithms.
We’ve seen countless numbers swapped, keys exchanged, holidays planned, weddings celebrated, and even BODA babies born. Whether it’s a spark of romance or a friend for life, we’re beyond thrilled with the magic that happens when people just meet offline.
Our socials have been called wholesome, even a real boost for single people’s mental health, which means a lot, because modern dating can be tough on both the head and the heart. So come for the rom-com energy, stay for the kind people and the easy conversation.
This time, we’re bringing those warm, fuzzy alpine ski-lodge feels to a rooftop: **the incredible Little Violet Door** - cosy corners and a room full of Christian singles ready to meet in the best way possible.
**What to expect**
• **A singles-only club**
• **A community of Christian singles** who value intention, sincerity, slower, meaningful connections over swipe culture.
• **Our BODA hosts** on hand all night - welcoming you in, helping you settle (especially if you come solo), and keeping the vibe warm, safe and fun.
• **A strict no-creep policy.** Always lead with respect. If someone isn’t interested, we 'respect the rejection' and move on with kindness. We also have an anti-ghosting policy ❤️
Our hosts can’t wait to welcome you - **come as you are, come solo if you want (95% of people do), and come ready to meet someone offline.**
See you there. We can’t wait to meet you! xo
Questions? DM us anytime or check us out on Instagram **@boredofdatingapps**.
**The essentials**
• **Tickets:** non-refundable.
By buying a ticket, you agree to be part of our social media snaps and videos from the night.

Spanish-English Exchange/Nuestra próxima reunión
Hi Everyone, The next Euroclub Spanish / English language exchange will be on **Sunday 12 April from 4 p.m.** at Blooms cafe, Royal National Hotel, 38-51 Bedford Way, London WC1H 0DG. Blooms cafe is behind the courtyard of the London Pub which is at 39 Woburn Place, close to Russell Square tube station. The group will normally be inside the cafe at the far side from the entrance.
Newcomers welcome! Please note that though it is free to attend this meeting you need to buy a drink from the bar.
We speak Spanish for the first hour and then English. At least 1 hour of practice with native speakers (You need to be comfortable talking in spanish for this event as we talk for an hour in each language. Not suitable for beginners). Spanish native speakers particularly welcome. This is a FREE event organised by EuroClub.
If you are a Spanish native speaker living outside the UK (or in the UK) you can join in our online Spanish-english exchanges or English conversation evenings on Zoom.
For more info on online exchanges send a text or Whatsapp to Ray on +447760231383
English Course for the Workplace
**This is an English Course for the Workplace designed to help you find employment or advance your career.**
We will meet on Thursday evenings for 10 weeks, starting with the assessment night on April 9th.
The course is completely free, but spots are limited to 8 people, so sign up if you are interested!
I will need to assess if your English is at a pre-intermediate or intermediate level, so expect an assessment on the first night.
*Call or WhatsApp Richard at +44 7428 086979 and mention 'English for the Workplace' if you have any questions.*
Let's meet up and speak English at a museum!
Our first 'class cultural trip' was really fun so I'm carrying on the series and we're going to keep exploring the British Museum.
The idea is we'll meet in the cafe at the British Museum, and then choose which part of the museum we want to explore. We'll walk around it, stopping to look at things we find interesting. I'll help you with the vocabulary you need to talk about what you can see. At the end we'll go back to the cafe to summarise what we've learnt and do a little vocabulary test to see what you can remember from your visit!
If you are late, don't worry too much, because we will stay in the cafe until everyone has arrived and then start exploring the museum.
I hope to make 'cultural visit classes' to museums/ exhibitions/ galleries into a regular event so let me know which places you are interested in. I plan to choose places that have free entry.
I need a minimum of 2 students to run this Meetup. Maximum 5 students so everyone gets a good chance to speak.
Let's meet up and speak English £5!
This Meet Up is a chance to practice speaking English while meeting new people and making new friends from all over the world.
The classes are fun, friendly and informal and we cover a variety of topics.
I correct you and give you help with grammar and vocabulary as we go, so you can improve as you speak.
I look forward to welcoming you and having a good conversation with you in English soon!
TO FIND US: The class is in the CAFÉ on the FIRST FLOOR of the library. In the UK, the first floor is one floor ABOVE the ground floor.
From the main entrance, go up the stairs or escalators straight ahead of you. Walk round to your left and you'll see the café. I'll have a sign with 'Meetup' and your names.

Please bring a dish to share and anything you would like to drink.

We will update the details closer to the date of the Pot Luck but wanted to get this out to everyone so that you can make plans for that day.
