Update 14 May: Tomorrow looks like it’s going to be a very London-weather day, and we might end up watching clouds instead. ⛅️ We will still go ahead with the event and play it by the ear. Looks like low chance of rain on those hours. But please bring an umbrella instead of the blanket because we will pivot to a walk as the ground must be wet. If it ends up raining we will go to Myra, our usual cafe which is like 20 min away. 😊 Looking forward to seeing you tomorrow! 💟 ———————————————————— Join us for a screen-free Offline Women Sunset in the Park to enjoy the fresh air and end the week in nature. Close the laptop and trade the screen glare for the evening glow. This is a simple, tech-free space to decompress from the work week. We’re heading to Regent’s Park to just sit, hang out on the grass, and watch the sun go down. It’s the ultimate Friday reset, giving us a chance to reconnect with nature, other women and ourselves. We’ll meet at Queen Mary's Rose Gardens for a gentle wander through the flowers and the park. As the "Golden Hour" starts, we’ll find a peaceful spot to sit, chat, and watch the sky change. No pressure and no agenda, just fresh air and good company. While we meet at the Rose Garden every time, our final "sitting spot" will change, allowing us to experience different areas of the park together. Bring a blanket and some snacks if you like, or just show up as you are. Spots are limited to ensure the group remains small, intimate, and everyone has a great time connecting face-to-face.

Reclaim your story through the art of noticing. This isn’t a formal class, but a cozy playground for your memories and journey. AWDPI Events | Writing Workshop with Wenhan ✨ Writing as Awakening ✨ No writing experience is required, just bring a relaxed heart and a curiosity for the "small things" that make us who we are. What to Expect 🍊 We’ll start with playful games to build confidence before diving into sensory writing, using the scent and texture of an orange to spark raw, honest prose. You’ll reflect on your journey, reimagine your life through the lens of mythology, and write a heartfelt letter to your past self. Through movement or spoken word, we’ll then transform these reflections into a shared experience, creating a safe space where our stories can truly breathe. The Facilitator Wenhan (MA, RCSSD) is an Applied Theatre practitioner who has led community workshops across London, Singapore, and China. A "grounded idealist" and self-proclaimed Short Rib Cooking Master, she blends professional expertise with warm energy to help you find your voice. 📅 Date: Friday, 15 May 2026 📍 Location: 65 Aldwych, London, WC2B 4DS (Detailed address will be provided after registration) ⌚️Time: 18:00 - 20:00 (GMT+1), Check-in start 17:40 🎫 Free Entry!

London girlies… we’re doing it 🇬🇧✨ I’ll be in London **May 14–18**, and I’m hosting the **first-ever [Girlies in Tech dinner](https://luma.com/girliesintechdinner) in London**. If you’re a **designer, engineer, PM, founder, student, intern, or just generally a woman working in tech**, I’d love to meet you. These dinners are meant to be small, relaxed, and actually social — the goal is to meet new people and hopefully leave with a few new friends in tech. 📍 Dinner will be at **Agrodolce London**, a cozy Italian spot in **Fitzrovia** right in the **West End**. Think a little **West End girl energy.** It’s super easy to get to — just a short walk from **Goodge Street Station** on the Northern Line, and there are also tons of buses nearby. If you’re a student at University of London, senior level techie, live around the West End, or just want to come into town for dinner, you’re very welcome. A few quick details: 🍝 **Small dinner (11 seats total)** 🗓 **May 16, 2026** 💸 **Pay your own meal** (RSVP is free) These dinners have been a **hot commodity in the U.S.** — they’ve sold out quickly in **New York City**, **Chicago**, and **Washington, D.C.** — so I’m excited to finally bring one to London. Seats are limited, but if you’re interested, RSVP and come join us for a cozy Italian dinner with other women in tech. And if this one fills up quickly… I’ll definitely plan another London meetup in the future. If you have any questions, feel free to [reach out](https://www.linkedin.com/in/jrdnhrrsn/) 💛

Wine Not? is a women-only gathering before the Balancers Saturday social. Most attendees come solo, so it’s an easy and welcoming place to meet people and settle in before the night gets busier. London can make meeting new people feel awkward, especially if you're coming alone. This early social creates a comfortable environment where you can chat, laugh, and get to know a few friendly faces first. Expect a relaxed atmosphere, a few light games, and plenty of time to connect naturally. At **7.30 pm the main Balancers social begins**, and the room fills as over **150 people usually join the night**. Wine Not? naturally flows into the rest of the evening, so you’re welcome to stay and enjoy the full experience. Coming solo is completely normal. Our hosts will be there to help everyone feel comfortable, included, and connected from the start. **Check out our past events here:** **[https://www.instagram.com/_balancers/](https://www.instagram.com/_balancers/)** **Want to stay in the loop?

**Our May novel is: *The Quiet Librarian* by Allen Eskens** **This month’s book is set in the 20th century and mixes historical fiction with suspense and thriller elements. It also centers on women’s stories and relationships. The novel is 368 pages in print or 8 hours and 12 minutes on audiobook.** Hana Babic is a quiet, middle-aged librarian in Minnesota who wants nothing more than to be left alone. But when a detective arrives with the news that her best friend has been murdered, Hana knows that something evil has come for her, a dark remnant of the past she and her friend had shared. Thirty years before, Hana was someone else: Nura Divjak, a teenager growing up in the mountains of war-torn Bosnia—until Serbian soldiers arrived to slaughter her entire family before her eyes. The events of that day thrust Nura into the war, leading her to join a band of militia fighters, where she became not only a fierce warrior but a legend—the deadly Night Mora. But a shattering final act forced Nura to flee to the United States with a bounty on her head\*\*.\*\*
