BOOK YOUR TICKET 👉🏼 [HERE](https://itsadate.club/event/human-bingo-in-the-city-5/). It’s a Date takes over a private space at *The Star by Liverpool Street* for an active and entertaining evening of networking—Human Bingo in The City. We’re kicking off the weekend with 40 sociable single guests, coming together for after-work drinks, interactive rounds of Human Bingo, and the chance to win the odd prize (and we’re not just talking about those second dates!). *“Human Bingo?”* we hear you ask—what’s that?! It’s a super-fun icebreaker game where *you* are the playing piece. Everyone gets a bingo-style card filled with fun facts (like “Has a pet,” “Can speak another language,” or “Loves sushi”). Your mission? Mingle, ask questions, and find people who match each square. Get a full row—and bingo—you’ve won a free drink! It’s the perfect way to kick-start conversations and meet new people, minus the awkward small talk. Your host will be ready to welcome you from 19:30, wearing a big smile and a discreet name badge, so they’ll be easy to spot. You’ll be offered an optional name sticker (great for breaking the ice), a Human Bingo card (to spark some mingling magic), and once you’re ready, introduced to a bunch of other single guests. Get ready for a relaxed, zero small-talk, great-vibes kind of night—full of new connections, genuine chat, and maybe even a few sparks (plus a free drink or two) along the way. After the event wraps up, head to your dashboard to leave feedback on the people you met. A match is made when two guests give each other positive feedback, unlocking messaging on our platform. Got questions? Feel free to reach out to James at 07517 065 492 or james@itsadate.club

Join OutdoorLads popular weekly Thursday Bouldering evening at The Arch in Bermondsey. OutdoorLads London boulderers welcome all members of the LGBTQ+ community You'll be meeting with a supportive group of 5 to 10 plus boulderers who are always happy to introduce complete beginners or solve difficult bouldering problems with enthusiasts. We usually follow up with a pub visit. This event is for members of all levels of experience and all are welcome to come along to any of the sessions. Bouldering is a form of climbing where instead of long high routes, the 'problems', as they are referred to, tend to be shorter and focus on technique, balance, body positioning and sometimes power. Because of this different emphasis, bouldering doesn't have the hassle of climbing with ropes, harnesses and belaying, which makes the activities excellent for newcomers to the sport. If you're a seasoned climber you won't need convincing about the benefits of bouldering, but for those who've never climbed more than a staircase, the benefits are wide ranging: from the physical - improved strength, tone, balance, power and coordination; mental - problem solving, focus, concentration and body awareness; to the emotional - relaxation, a sense of achievement and a feeling that mind and body are working together perfectly ('feeling psyched'). On top of all this, bouldering tends to be a very social sport where you can hang out with mates and each have a go as you feel regardless of what level you climb at.

****IMPORTANT UPDATE (posted 18th March)** Hi everyone! 👋 Excited for our British Museum meetup this Saturday! As mentioned, a kind member had generously offered complimentary passes for a paid exhibit, but following a couple of messages I’ve sent, I haven’t had confirmation yet if they’re still available. Just in case the passes aren’t available, we’ll still meet and enjoy the free galleries and collections - there’s so much to see and explore. Either way, it’ll be a fantastic outing together. I’ll update you if we hear anything new about the passes. Looking forward to seeing you all! **Event description:** **A member of the group has kindly offered 4 x British Museum complimentary passes worth £18 each. This covers the cost for one special (paid-for, no cost to us) exhibition. She will be at the museum at 12.45 to give a talk in one of the galleries, so we can meet earlier to make sure we dont miss her. ** How exciting! Join me and we can figure out which exhibit we want to see on the day! [We still need to book a free admission ticket, please book one for 21st March at 12.30 here.](https://ticketing.britishmuseum.org/14623/21432) Availability is obviously limited (it will be 4 people max including me) so please let me know asap if you would like to join and once you RSVP ‘yes’ please send me a pm to confirm you are attending so I can reserve your spot. **If you are not sure you can make it please don’t RSVP yes, let someone else who genuinely wants to join take this opportunity.** **no shows will be removed from the group** ☕️ We will take about 1 hour to go through the exhibit then we will go for coffee somewhere inside the museum or nearby.

Everyone welcome 😊

Important to note:

1. We typically socialise at cafés after the exhibit, nice, independent ones, not chains and not at pubs. If the event is late on a Saturday we go to a nice bar/pub for drinks after. This meetup is inclusive and everyone is welcome to join.
2. If you get there before everyone and you're not sure what to do or where we are, post a comment on here and I will let you know our whereabouts.
3. Once we go in we may separate, feel free to explore the exhibit by yourself, we don't have to be together. Some people like chatting to others while exploring and other people prefer to be with their own thoughts. You are welcome to express yourself and do whatever helps you feel free.

4. If you are late or if you’ve booked for an earlier or later time don’t worry just go in and you’ll find us inside. Keep an eye on the comments as I’ll be posting updates.

**Complex Trauma Support Group** Our group is intended for survivors of complex trauma. If you are here, it’s likely that so much of who you are and what you have experienced in this life is actually invisible to most people––to family, society, coworkers, and the people who are around you. We are a peer-led group of survivors creating opportunities for ourselves and others to share our experiences, share support, and build relationships in kind community together. Survivor experiences might include: child sexual abuse, incest, child trafficking, and other experiences of people living with traumatic dissociation and complex PTSD. **What to expect at your first meeting:** Currently, we are offering a bi-monthly in person group at 2:00pm on the first and third Sunday of the month. The only criterion for joining the group is that you are a survivor of trauma wishing to have more kindness in your own life and share kindness with others, and that you agree to practice to group’s relational agreements available for view here: https://www.kindgroups.com/agreements. Joining the group is free of charge. We ask that new people connect with us for 30 minutes on the phone or on zoom before coming to their first group, so that we can determine together that we are a good fit. Our meetings last approximately 90 minutes. Participants are never required to share. You’re also welcome to choose a pseudonym and you will never be asked for private information. You are welcome to leave at any time. The kindness that survivors can share when among others who have survived similar childhood experiences is something we rarely get to experience. Time spent with others who understand even a little bit more about us is a relief. Our hope is to help ourselves and others experience that we are not alone. We wish for our efforts to be a cause of kindness in our own lives and the lives of each other. You can read more about the groups at www.kindgroups.com.

We believe that emotionally mature, powerful, compassionate, and purpose-driven men will help heal some of society’s deepest wounds. We support the powerful brilliance of men and we are willing to look at, and take full responsibility for, the pain we are also capable of creating – and suffering.

We thought of one of the interesting things that can be enjoyed at this time of the year. We will be meeting at Immaculate Conception Catholic Church for a "Fish Fry" in Marian Hall on Friday, March 27th at 5:00 PM. It might be fun for you to experience what has become a tradition on the Fridays before Easter. They will have fried fish or baked fish, French fries and Cole slaw, as well as beverages, all for $16.00 for adults. They will have other beverages and desserts available for sale, as well. We have never tried this, and sometimes there are quite a few people at these events so we hope that we will be able to find each other easily. I'll try to have signs outside Marian Hall that Identify our group. We hope to have you join us!

**The idea for this group is to build a community where men can gather together and build connections & learn and grow from each other.** How we start each meeting is by each of us checking in with our "roses and thorns" aka what are the good things and the bad things going on in your life recently? Then we will go into a topic discussion. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **COMMUNITY AGREEMENTS** \*\*THERE WILL BE A ZERO TOLERANCE POLICY FOR NO-SHOWS. IF YOU RSVP TO A MEETING AND FAIL TO SHOW UP WITHOUT NOTICE, YOU'LL BE REMOVED FROM THE GROUP. THIS IS TO PRESERVE THE INTEGRITY OF THE GROUP\*\* 1. Confidentiality - EVERYTHING that is shared NEVER leaves this space so that this space remains safe and sacred. There is a zero tolerance policy for this. If a man is in violation of this, they will be permanently removed from the group. 2. Non-Judgement - we respect and honor every man’s truth so that we may receive the same from others. While we may not agree on everything, we commit to respecting every man’s perspectives and engaging in honorable discussion with one another. 3. Be committed - honor your commitment to this group and to yourself. If you attend a meeting, please commit yourself fully to the meeting. Also be committed to your own journey. When we fail, we own it & clean it up. 4. Speak from the heart - this is NOT a space to “look good”, have the “right” answers, and have it all together. Relax and know you are not alone. Be exactly who you are within the safety of this space. 5. Be supportive - This means always willing to provide encouragement to your fellow men, encourage action and momentum in each other’s lives.. Be willing to challenge each other. Be willing to hold each other accountable. 6. Participation - what you receive from this community will be a reflection of what you put into it. Period. We ask that you share your perspectives, reflect on others, and give/receive support when and where it’s needed.
