World Citizens Friday Social in Mayfair/Piccadilly 🌍 Meet International Friends
**Meet people from around the world** in beautiful spaces across London. We mix informal socializing with a few structured activities so you feel safe, relaxed and make new friends!
**What is World Citizens?** London's community for new-in-town, expats, travellers and third culture kids who want to meet in a *safe*, *culturally enriching* and *thought-provoking* space.
**How to participate?** You *must* enter our ticket lottery at [https://worldcitizenfridays.eventbrite.co.uk](https://worldcitizenfridays.eventbrite.co.uk)! If you're picked, you will receive an invitation email with the secret venue address sometime on Thursday or Friday!
**The secret venue address** changes every week, but is very close to the map spot. This week we'll be in Soho on Carnaby Street, just a short walk from Oxford Circus or Piccadilly Circus stations. To receive the full secret venue address you *must* register via Eventbrite lottery. There is no other way. If you received the full secret venue address, please do not share it with anyone!
**Why the lottery and secret venue?** We balance quantity and quality, newcomers and regulars, and give everyone a chance to experience safe, diverse and culturally enriching events. Expect *less* attendees than the number of RSVP, but *more* quality time connecting with people in a meaningful way!
**What we expect from you:**
1. To be respectful and courteous with everyone.
2. To be present so that others feel listened to.
3. To be mindful of people’s personal space.
*These events are for everyone to feel safe, welcome and comfortable; where everyone can be heard; where everyone can maintain boundaries with harmony. Thank you for your cooperation!*
**We put women first:** *Over 80% of women in the UK say that nightlife is unsafe ([YouGov Oct 2021 poll](https://www.womensgrid.org.uk/?p=16635)) because of predator men and alcohol/substance abuse. We want to completely change that: World Citizens proactively designs event systems for everyone to enjoy a safe and pleasant evening.*
**JOIN OUR TEAM!** We're all volunteers doing this for fun, so if you enjoy organizing activities or events in your spare time, and meeting great people every week, send a message to our team account "TP".
**DISCLAIMER:** We are a 100% volunteer-run team. Despite careful planning and structure this is a private informal activity, so we cannot be liable for any damage or inconvenience. However, we put safety and comfort first. We take all complaints seriously, and take severe action against any form of harassment, verbal or non-verbal, and anti-social behaviour. We collaborate with the police if needed. We take photos and videos which may include you to help promote the community in line with GDPR Data Protection law, as well as stock photos from Pexels or Unsplash. We may restrict or prioritize guests at our own discretion for safety, quality and logistics reasons. While our admin decisions may not always be perfect we ask that you follow our decisions first and raise any disputes to discuss with us later and privately.

Celebrate Life, play board games and make new friends :-)
Hi everyone,
We will be meeting at The European Pub (557-559 Lea Bridge Rd, London E10 7EQ). We can have a meal and drinks and then play some board games. Do feel free to bring your own board games too.
So, whether you're new to the group or an old regular, don't hesitate to hit that RSVP button! Come and relive the atmosphere of warmth and friendliness that we always manage to create at our dining events! We are just regular folks who want the same thing as you - have a normal talk, stay in touch, make some new friends...
The whole point of this group is to create a little island of sanity in this chaotic world. All too often, one forgets to be grateful for what one has and for the life one is allowed to lead. So let's get together and celebrate Life itself, and our little group in particular!
We'll be meeting just outside.
If you can't find us, please ring 07961179692.

E is for Emergency Exits: The Fight for Independence @ Imperial War Museum
Join us at **Emergency Exits: The Fight for Independence in Malaya, Kenya and Cyprus at the Imperial War Museum, London.**
***(Fancy the museum, but not this exhibition? Feel free to sign up and just visit the museum sections you want to see.)***
*Emergency Exits* focuses on three wars in the 1950s: in Malaya (now Malaysia), Kenya and Cyprus. It explores the motivations of key figures, the responses of the British colonial authorities and how these conflicts affected ordinary people.
You’ll hear stories from people on different sides as they share their thoughts on the wars that shaped their lives.
The exhibition also explores the British Government’s attempts to prevent documents relating to the conflicts from being published. In 2011, following a long battle by campaigners, the Government revealed that thousands of these files were still held in a secure archive. *Emergency Exits* helps unpick the path towards recognition in the UK.
Please note: *Sections of this exhibition contain themes including racism, sexual violence and torture.*

🏖️ Тюлени и вискикурня
Если вы когда-нибудь мечтали увидеть тюленей, греющихся на берегу, то время пришло😍!
Мы отправляемся на побережье северного Норфолка, которое славится первозданной природной красотой👍🏻. Возможно, именно поэтому его облюбовали тюлени, обитающие здесь круглый год. Грациозные в воде и немного неуклюжие на суше, с трогательными мордочками, огромные самцы, изящные самочки и крохотные детеныши — весь пляж просто усыпан животными, а воздух наполнен их криками.
Вы можете наблюдать за морскими созданиями со специально оборудованных смотровых площадок или отважиться и подойти как можно ближе. Но не стоит забывать, что на суше тюлени чувствуют себя уязвимо, а потому необходимо обращать внимание на обозначения огороженных участков, созданных ради безопасности как людей, так и животных🛑. Нас ждет потрясающее зрелище, которое подарит море впечатлений, эмоций и множество замечательных фотографий! А ещё местечко Horsey Gap прославилось тем, что в 2015 году на его пляже родились первые в мире официально зарегистрированные тюлени-двойняшки! Прекрасным завершением дня после неспешной прогулки станет обед в пабе Nelson Head🍧.
