What we’re about
You are either new to meetup or have been on meetup for a long time and are tired of how the social activities have deteriorated in the other meetup groups in London.
We organise roughly about 4 socials in a month closer towards the weekends, so many people can join us after work in the city to mingle with each other. Our venues tend to be easily accessible by public transport.
Our social events tend to be catered towards to about 15 to 20 members at any given time, which gives members an opportunity to mingle with everyone present.
Here is how we will do things differently -
Ever since Covid has occurred the world has changed ways in how we function and operate.
Meeting people of various cultures has become difficult with various restrictions and with online events people rarely have the opportunity of meeting face to face.
We will always have hosts at all our events. You will always be greeted by someone
at all our events and introduced to others.

We will minimise no shows by requiring attendees to pay a deposit in advance.
We will strive to attract a high quality membership who prefer higher quality
venues and events.
We will constantly request members to help us host events and take a lead on
activities so that we have energy and variety.

Our venue for the evening - Stout Irish Pub is spacious, has comfortable seating and not very noisy. We have a reserved area where our members can meet each other in a supportive environment.
Here's how your evening is planned -
- We will meet at 7.00 pm when you will be welcomed by your host Susi. She will manage the evening and also help you make connections.If you are a bit shy or anxious then please come early. Susi will help you meet other members in a small group and help you settle down and get comfortable. All attendees are also welcome to bring a lady friend along with them for free. This will make it a lot less stressful for you as you will always have your friend alongside.
- From 7.30 to 8.30 pm, we will start 'Fast Friending' where our host will ask you to speak to a different attendee every 3 minutes. You will be able to meet lots of ladies and gentlemen and not be limited to only those sitting or standing next you.
- After 8.30 pm you will have time to interact with those you have met as well as others.- We are not a close knit tight group. Our evenings are warm and comfortable for members attending for the first time and those coming alone. You will not feel alone!
- We have many groups in this city. Members of our other groups who RSVP are included as guests of the organisers in order to give you an indication of expected people.
- This evening is for ladies and gents in the 25 to 40 age group. While some will be at the younger end of this range there will also be others at the other end of the range and lots in-between! You will naturally gel with others of your own age range and so you will always find many attendees who fit your range.
- We are not a 'dating' group. We are focused on helping ladies and gents meet other like minded ladies and gents. You will generally find a good gender balance (maybe not perfect) at all our events.Why do we have tickets?
- Cover our costs - Our host is compensated for their time and work. We also pay meetup and have dedicated staff to manage our events, hosts, venues and communication.
- Group Safety - By securing your ticket we have a record and you contribute to a well organized evening where everyone is more committed and better behaved.
- Management - Tickets help us better manage attendee group size, book suitable space and activity.
