Over 50's Speed Dating @ Mint Leaf Lounge, Bank
**\*\*THIS IS NOT A FREE EVENT & RSVP ON MEET UP DOES NOT GUARANTEE ENTRY\*\***
**TO ATTEND THIS EVENT A TICKET MUST BE PURCHSED FROM OUR WEBSITE. PLEASE CLICK HERE TO PURCHASE A TICKET:** [https://truedating.co.uk/events/over-50's-speed-dating-20-feb-2026](https://truedating.co.uk/events/over-50's-speed-dating-20-feb-2026)
Join [True Dating](https://truedating.co.uk/), London's #No 1 speed dating and singles party host! With a track record of hosting hundreds of successful events all across London, we've helped thousands of people find their perfect match.
**But what exactly is speed dating?**
It's simple yet effective:
You'll have the opportunity to meet up to 15 potential dates, with each mini-date lasting around five minutes. It's the perfect amount of time to gauge if there's a connection. Ladies remain seated while gentlemen rotate, ensuring you meet a variety of interesting individuals.
Our events primarily attract working professionals who are tired of the endless swiping and are seeking something meaningful and long-term.
At True Dating, you can enjoy a friendly and secure atmosphere knowing that everyone is single and looking for the same thing—love!
The day after the event, you can log in to enter your matches and potentially set up a second date using our secure messaging service.
**Please remember to enter your matches before 4pm as this is when the matching system closes.**
And here's the reality check:
In a bustling city like London, where everyone leads busy lives and dating options seem endless, finding the right person can be challenging. That's why our events are designed to increase your chances of meeting someone special who shares your goals and aspirations.
Contrary to popular belief, speed dating events are not weird or creepy. They've become increasingly popular as a refreshing alternative to online dating.
**What can you expect at our events?**
\- Diverse attendees at each event
\- Officially signed\-up participants
\- Higher odds of finding compatible matches
\- Friendly hosts to facilitate introductions
**Don't miss out—register now for our next event! Spaces are limited, and our events often sell out fast.**
We have years of experience organizing successful dating events and creating meaningful connections. We're so confident that you'll find someone worth meeting again that if you don't, your next event is on us!
It's time to stop swiping and start dating in real life with True Dating. Join us for an unforgettable experience!
**Important details:**
Look out for an email from True Dating on the day of the event for account details.
Event starts at 7:30 pm with a reserved area for True Dating attendees.
Venue closes at 1 am.
*Stop Swiping. Start Dating*.

Cheese and Wine Evening | Ages 25 to 38
BOOK YOUR TICKET 👉🏼 [HERE](https://itsadate.club/event/cheese-and-wine-evening/).
Perfect for cheese and wine lovers — or anyone up for a fun, flavour-filled evening, with the chance to meet someone who shares their taste in vino!
Have a Mer’lot of fun meeting fellow wine enthusiasts during this full-bodied evening of Old World wines and newfound single friends. Add a cheese and charcuterie board into the mix, and you’ve got yourself some truly perfect pairings!
You’ll be welcomed at 19:15 by your It’s a Date host, who will show you where to leave your jacket and introduce you to the rest of the group.
From there, you’ll enjoy three 125ml servings of hand-selected wines — typically a red, a white, and either a rosé or sparkling option. Pairing notes will be provided to give insight into each wine’s origins, add context to the flavours, and offer easy conversational cues as we explore the wines (and each other) throughout the evening.
Mid-way through, we’ll share a selection of cheeses and charcuterie — the ideal accompaniment to a relaxed, organic, and sociable night out.
Throughout the event, your host will make introductions and ensure everyone has plenty of opportunities to mingle and connect. We’ll wrap up around 21:00, after which the bar will remain open for a glass from your favourite bottle and the chance to continue socialising more widely.
Once home, you can access a list of attendees on your It’s a Date dashboard to send match feedback and organise those second dates. A match is struck when two guests reciprocate identical feedback, indicating mutual intent to reconnect and enabling messaging via our online platform.
If you have any questions on the event or how things will work, please get in contact with James on 07517 065 492 or james@itsadate.club.

Tribalheart Ecstatic Dance
DANCING EVERY 1ST AND 3RD SATURDAY NIGHTS <3
Tribalheart Ecstatic dance creates space for free-form movement in a chat free zone where you can dive deeply into the heart, reconnecting, expressing, dancing in and out, up and down, learning to let go of anything and everything that holds you back from yourSelf and inner freedom. Let the energy move you, let the spirit of the heart guide you.
There is space to dance alone and no pressure to connect with anyone else, just be yourself and honour what you need in the moment.
This night is an inspiration and fusion of club culture, dancing yoga, active meditation, cardio fitness, Ecstatic trance dance (blindfolds available) and a sacred Nataraj. If you choose to connect, it is a chance to meet others without words from a place of movement, meditation, energy and soul; eyes and heart wide open.
###
We will start the evening with a welcoming warmup to relax the body and mind. Together we will set an intention for the evening inviting the heart to open and awaken within us thus creating sacred space for all. For those that wish to partake, we will enjoy and deepen our intention with a short Cacao ceremony. (The cacao is used to take us deeper into our body, awakening our senses, connecting us to heart energy and aiding a spring in our step) We also embark on some dynamic breathwork to fire us up for the evening.
\- Please leave at least 2 hours after eating a heavy meal if drinking cacao\.
-Please do not drink alcohol before the event as it is contraindicated with some of the breathwork techniques we practice
We inject passion into sourcing the music for our events and aim to deliver an eclectic mix of genres for your heart. From tribal to electronic and everything in between we aim to assist a natural flow peaking and resting to mirror the rhythm and energy of life. Prepare to shake, spin, whirl and twirl. The music becomes the facilitator during the wild ecstatic dance ending with moments of stillness into silence where we can rest and breathe together
Each DJ has their own sound and energy to be shared, making each night unique and different...

FULL - Social Walk, Games & Pub Trip | Battersea Park
**It's landed. Another Sunday and we’ve got your weekend sorted again with another Social Walk and Pub trip, exclusively for 20s and 30s.**
For our latest Sunday walk, we’ll be hiking through some of the most stunning parts of SW London - from Battersea Park to Waterloo.
Before heading off on the hike, as always - you'll be allocated a group for a mix of light-hearted games to help you break the ice and get to know your fellow walkers a little better before we set off.
After the games and once everyone is warmed up for the walk, we’ll set off on our 2hr (approx) stroll from Battersea Park.
After exploring a bit of the park, we’ll take a scenic route along the River Thames, enjoying views of the Houses of Parliament, Big Ben and the London Eye.
We’ll then finish up in Waterloo and when we make it to the pub, we'll then be dusting off our **large collection of Board Games for you to enjoy.**
From classics like Exploding Kittens, Codenames, Dixit and many more - we've got a range of great games to keep the fun going with your new friends.
It should be another great afternoon but as always - we will be having to cap numbers for this event and so do make sure you nab your place as soon as you can!

Deeper Discussions - Fiction Book Club 📚💬
Join us for a special edition of Deeper Discussions, where we dive into thought-provoking **fiction** that challenges perspectives, sparks imagination, and opens doors to meaningful conversations. Whether you're a lifelong reader or rediscovering the joy of novels, this is a space to explore stories that stay with you long after the final page. 📖💭
**This Month's Book 📖 - *Never Let Me Go* by Kazuo Ishiguro 🌸**
A haunting novel following a group of students whose seemingly ordinary upbringing slowly reveals deeper ethical and societal questions. Ishiguro's restrained, carefully controlled narrative explores memory, friendship, and moral responsibility—leaving you questioning what it means to be human long after you turn the final page.
**How does it work? 📝**
* Brief introductions and reflections on what struck you most 💡
* Moderated discussion exploring plot, themes, and characters 🎭
* Open conversation where different interpretations are welcomed 🗣️
* We wrap up by sharing insights and connections made 🌟
**What to Expect? 🔍**
**📖 Close Reading:** We go beyond surface-level plot summary. Expect discussions that examine the author's choices, narrative techniques, and the questions left lingering in the silence between pages.
**💬 Thoughtful Dialogue:** This isn't a race to share opinions—it's a space for genuine exploration. We listen, we reflect, we build on each other's insights.
**🤝 Meaningful Connections:** Great fiction holds up a mirror to the human experience. Through discussing characters' choices and moral dilemmas, we often discover something about ourselves and each other.
**How to get the most out of this event? 🌱**
**📚 Finish the Book:** Please attend only if you've completed the book. Spoilers will flow freely, and the richest discussions come from those who've made the full journey.
**📝 Ground it in the Text:** Bring your interpretations, but anchor them in what's actually on the page. Quote passages. Reference scenes. Let the author's words guide us.
**🙏 Respect & Openness:** Every interpretation matters. Make space for quieter voices. Challenge ideas, not people. Stay curious rather than defensive.
**Why a Fiction Book Club? 📚**
**🪞 Explore the Human Condition:** Fiction lets us inhabit lives we'll never live, forcing us to confront questions about identity, morality, love, and loss.
**🧠 Sharpen Your Thinking:** Close reading develops critical thinking—noticing what the author chose to include, exclude, and how the story is told matters as much as what happens.
**💖 Deepen Connections:** Discussing characters' choices and moral dilemmas creates surprisingly intimate conversations with fellow readers.
**Who is this event for? 🎯**
* You find yourself thinking about books long after you've finished them 📖💭
* You want more from book discussions than "I liked it" or "I didn't" 🤔
* You're curious how others interpret the same story differently 🔄
* You value thoughtful dialogue over debate 🗣️✨
* You're looking for meaningful connections with fellow readers 🤝
**What's in it for you? 💡**
* **Fresh Perspectives:** Discover interpretations you'd never have considered alone 🔄
* **Deeper Understanding:** Unpack themes and symbols that enrich your reading 📚
* **Genuine Connection:** Bond with others over shared literary experiences 💖
* **A Space to Think:** Slow down from the noise and engage with ideas that matter 🧘
**Ready to dive deeper into stories that matter? 🌊**
Join us for an evening where fiction becomes a gateway to understanding ourselves and each other. 📚💬✨
**We really hope to see you there!** 👋
**About Deeper Connections**
We have a mission at Deeper Connections to improve the quality of people's lives through conversation. All our events are centred around the concept of connecting deeply, because we believe we all deserve to be seen, felt and understood for who we really are. To have the 'deeper conversation' approach when relating with others can change our lives and can change the world.
**Our Values**
* **Respect:** Treat everyone with kindness and consideration. ❤️
* **Open-mindedness:** Be open to different perspectives and ideas. 🧠💡

💟Offline Women Hangout at the Reading Room
Step away from the screen and join us for our Offline Women Hangout at the Reading Room.
We are meeting to unplug and enjoy a few hours of unstructured time together. There is no set agenda or forced socializing. We simply gather to exist in the same space, screen-free.
The Reading Room inside the Wellcome Collection is a unique mix of a library and a gallery. It is filled with over a thousand books and curious historical objects.
Unlike a standard library, this is a social space where talking is welcome. It is specifically designed for movement, conversation, and discovery.
**What you can do**
* **Explore**: Try out the various activities stationed around the room, from creative prompts to interactive displays.
* **Read**: Pick up any book from the open shelves or bring your own.
* **Create:** Bring your journal or sketchbook to capture thoughts.
* **Relax:** Grab a beanbag on the stairs and just exist and people-watch.
* **Socialize:** Engage in low-pressure conversation with other Offline Women in the social zones.
Spots are limited to ensure the group remains small, intimate, and everyone has a great time connecting face-to-face.

**NOTICE of RISKS applicable for all walks:**
Please dress appropriately for weather and terrain conditions.
Only wear good sturdy shoes, with ankle support, and carry a bottle of water and necessary medication. You need to be moderately fit for this walk and able to walk for at least 8 miles. This walk is suitable for the average experienced hill walker. Expect some hills. Do not attend this walk if you do not fit that description or if you have a medical condition (especially heart and/or lung conditions) that may impact upon your capability of completing the walk.
These walks are city walks and countryside walks where all the usual risks of injury during such walks apply resulting from interactions with road traffic, joggers, cyclists, e-scooters,other members of the public, animals (farm, domestic and wild), plants (allergic reactions), uneven surfaces, including portruding tree roots and potholes and there may be low overhanging branches.
In these walks we cross busy roads, use towpaths alongside water, bridlepaths, country lanes and sometimes ill defined paths and tracks through woodland, bush and countryside. Some tracks may be muddy and slippery, and conditions may be wet and icy. The walk leader is not and does not purport to be a professional guide, or a medical professional, but is instead a like minded individual who also enjoys hill walking and who is familiar with the intended route.
Do not attend this walk unless you accept and consent to the above risks. If you require insurance for these walks then you must arrange this yourself.

It is written, directed and co-produced by Maggie Gyllenhaal and stars Jessie Buckley, Christian Bale, Peter Sarsgaard, Annette Bening, Jake Gyllenhaal and Penélope Cruz.

**Welcome to the inaugural meeting of the International Relations / Foreign Policy Group Columbus!**
This group brings together students, professionals, academics, and anyone interested in global affairs, diplomacy, and geopolitics.
Our first meetup will be an informal discussion focused on current international developments and global trends. This is a great opportunity to:
• Meet others interested in international relations and foreign policy
• Discuss current global events and geopolitical developments
• Exchange perspectives and ideas in a respectful environment
• Build a network of globally minded individuals in Central Ohio (Columbus and periphery)
**Discussion topics may include:**
* Strategic planning for the group and the way forward
* US foreign policy priorities in 2026
* Major geopolitical developments (Europe, Asia, Middle East)
* Global security and strategic competition
* International economic and diplomatic trends
No prior expertise is required—everyone is welcome, whether you're a student, professional, or simply interested in world affairs.
**This will be a casual, friendly, and intellectually engaging conversation.**
I look forward to meeting everyone and building a strong international relations / foreign policy community in Central Ohio.
