⭐🍸 Make Friends at a Riverside Pub 🌍 World Citizens Friday Social ✨🌙

MEET & DISCUSS at London's top expat social. What to expect:
- Warm, inclusive and civilised atmosphere
- Safer, brighter, conversation-friendly venues
- No alcohol peer pressure. Drink responsibly.

We put women first
Over 80% of women in the UK say that nightlife is unsafe (YouGov Oct 2021 poll), mainly because of some men behaving like predators and alcohol/substance abuse. Most events do very little against that, but we want a complete change - old norms should never be an excuse! World Citizens proactively addresses these concerns and designs events for everyone to enjoy a safe and pleasant evening.

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.
