BOOK YOUR TICKET 👉🏼 [HERE](https://itsadate.club/event/human-bingo-in-kings-cross-6/). It’s a Date takes over a private space at *Drake and Morgan, Kings Cross* for an active and entertaining evening of networking—It’s Human Bingo! We’re hosting a midweek social with 40 single guests, coming together for after-work drinks and a round of Human Bingo at this awesome venue. *“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 Ollie at 07517 065 492 or ollie@itsadate.club.

**What this is** A lot of women have said the main Pride event doesn't really feel like their thing anymore, so this is just a simpler alternative. It’s a group of women meeting in the park, having a drink, chatting properly, and spending a few hours outside. Most women come on their own. That’s completely normal here and we make sure you don’t feel it. Women usually range from their 20s through to their 60s. It’s normally a mix of new and returning women, so you won’t be the only new person there. If you’re feeling nervous, that’s very common. You can message beforehand or on the day and we can help you settle in. **Where to find us** Regent’s Park, Outer Circle (Baker Street side) 📍 51.5279, -0.1540 **What to bring** Bring whatever you want for a picnic. Most people bring a blanket and something to eat or drink. Cafés are nearby if needed. **Important** This is a female-only lesbian space. That boundary is clear and upheld at events. **How to attend** You must register in advance to attend [www.thelcommunity.com/events](www.thelcommunity.com/events) **One quick note on how the community works** L Community is member-funded. The standard contribution is £13 per month and covers the platform, events, moderation, and safeguarding. If £13 isn’t workable right now, you can opt out. Most people just come to a few things first and decide later. Support can be changed or cancelled at any time [www.thelcommunity.com/back-us-now](http://www.thelcommunity.com/back-us-now) **Arriving and support** If you’re nervous or can’t find us, message and we can come and meet you WhatsApp Jenny +44 7591 386019 **Staying connected** To access WhatsApp groups and stay part of the network: [www.thelcommunity.com/go](www.thelcommunity.com/go)

Launching on Friday 3rd July on the South Bank, the night before London Pride, it's a chance to meet new people before the weekend gets going. **This is the launch event** L Community Nights is our new monthly social for lesbian and bisexual women in London. This will be the first one. We're taking over a dedicated area inside the Hall at the Big Belly. It's a fantastic venue with a great atmosphere and we'll have a dedicated area to ourselves for the evening. **Tickets** £12 early bird. £15 standard. Advance booking only. Only 7 spots left. Book your place: [thelcommunity.com/nights](https://thelcommunity.com/nights) **You won't be standing around on your own** Most women come on their own. There'll be hosts on the night who introduce people and keep things moving, so you won't be left wondering what to do. We expect around 50 women to attend. Women in our community range from their 20s to their 60s. A lot of them tell us they were nervous before their first one. You can arrive, get a drink, settle in, and just see how you feel. **Important** This is a female-only space for lesbian and bisexual women. That's the whole point of it and that boundary is upheld at every event. If that's not for you, this won't be the right night. **Finding us** The reservation is under the name Jenny. If you can't find us or feel unsure walking in, message on WhatsApp on +44 7591 386019 and someone will come out to meet you. **Staying connected** L Community is a free platform for lesbian and bisexual women, with a community timeline, member profiles, and a directory for housemates, services, and local recommendations.

Evolve is all about creating an Authentic Community, Deeper Connections, and Confident Growth. We are a group of entrepreneurial women who connect personally and professionally. We welcome every guest to experience our authentic community with no cliques and no judgment. Come as you are! There's a seat waiting for you. Elevate is an action-oriented connection experience designed to help women entrepreneurs move beyond surface-level networking and into meaningful growth, collaboration, and courageous action. Each session centers around a focused business or personal development topic, followed by intentional breakout discussions that encourage deeper conversations, real relationship-building, and practical next steps. Unlike traditional networking events, Elevate is designed to create momentum. Women are encouraged not only to share ideas, but to actively support one another through accountability, collaboration, brainstorming, and action-based growth. Every meeting is an opportunity to build authentic connections, gain fresh perspective, and leave with a clear action step to implement before the next session. This is a space where women rise together — not through competition or hustle culture, but through encouragement, courage, consistency, and intentional community. \*\*Evolve Women's Collective is a membership based professional women's group. You can find more information at [www.EvolveWomensCollective.com](https://www.google.com/url?q=http://www.EvolveWomensNetwork.com&sa=D&source=calendar&usd=2&usg=AOvVaw0UekYvD4PoVa7WUlFFVHyp).

Come join us for lunch together at Bendi Wok, one of my favorites!

Evolve exists to provide a welcoming place for professional women to create an authentic community, deeper connections, and confident growth through networking and workshop events. No cliques, no judgement. **Shades of Sisterhood** is a space for women to grow from the inside out through meaningful conversations, personal development, mindset growth, and courageous self-awareness. These gatherings are designed to create deeper connection, expand perspective, and encourage women to become healthier, stronger, and more aligned versions of themselves — both personally and professionally. Through honest dialogue, shared experiences, and intentional conversations around identity, leadership, confidence, relationships, emotional resilience, and growth, women are invited into a supportive environment where they can learn, reflect, heal, and evolve together. This is not about perfection, hustle culture, or surface-level positivity. It is about creating a safe space for women to have real conversations, challenge limiting beliefs, grow in self-awareness, and step more confidently into who they were created to become. At its core, Shades of Sisterhood exists to remind women that growth starts within — and no woman has to navigate that journey alone. Guests are always welcome. We'd love to meet you! **[Click here to join the call!](https://zoom.us/j/7894682064)** \*\*Evolve Women's Network is a membership based networking group.
