A READY-MADE 'GROUP OF FRIENDS' TO GO OUT WITH!

MEET NEW PEOPLE!  MAKE NEW FRIENDS!  ENJOY A GREAT SOCIAL LIFE!
ENJOY GREAT COMPANY!  BUILD SOCIAL SKILLS!  GAIN CONFIDENCE!

The Social Group is a great way to connect, socialise, and enjoy your spare time.  Most people will find plenty of events within 45 mins of where they live, plus additional events further afield which they may wish to travel to!  Lots of choice!  When you join us, you have the opportunity to enjoy the BEST social life, with the good company of a very nice bunch of people who we hope will soon become your friends! 

We offer an exclusive FREE copy of SOCIAL GROUP MAGAZINE when you first join as a Social Group Member!  Around 150 A4 pages, packed full of news, reviews, photos of events, interesting features, fun, puzzles, and the current WHAT’S ON events programme for your area, with full details of how everything works!

The Social Group is an independent social enterprise, offering outstanding value for money!  We look for GREAT DEALS on bigger events such as parties and holidays.  LUXURY EVENTS are offered at discount prices.  And there's a whole range of BUDGET EVENTS too, saving you money.  Lots of variety, with something for all pockets.

Our team of organisers put a lot of effort into providing you with a great social life.  You will be able to telephone, email, tweet, or write to organisers Andrew & Cathy directly, benefit from their years of experience and ask for advice on the best social events to attend.  You can arrange a free ‘Meet & Greet’ with Andrew & Cathy at the start of your first event to welcome you into the group and put you at your ease.  Andrew & Cathy host many of the events in person and will do their best to help you feel welcome and included!             

In today's busy world, our team act like your very own social secretary / concierge service, organising the best social life for you!  Life is not a rehearsal.  We want you to make the most of your time.  All you have to do is... take part, join in, and enjoy yourself!  We don’t expect you to organise anything and we don’t impose on you.  We do all the hard work in getting everyone together and arranging all the events!  Every day, we receive phone calls from people who say they are looking to meet people and make new friends.  Social Group membership is the solution!

The Social Group...  Good fun!  Good times!  Good company!

You can get to know organisers Andrew & Cathy from their photos on the internet and chat to them on the telephone, so right from the start you will already feel you are going out with two friends and won't feel like you are on your own - and from there on, we'll introduce you to other people and do our best to help you make friends.  Everyone is made welcome.  What price for a friend?  We believe friendship is priceless!

500 Cruise Atrium Formal

 THE WORLD'S FIRST SOCIAL GROUP!

In 1997 we set up the world's first modern style 'social' organisation, which was completely groundbreaking and revolutionary at the time. YES!  The whole "SOCIAL NETWORKING" thing that's become a global phenomena was our own original idea.  We started this project to aim to bring people together, 7 years before Facebook and 10 years before Twitter.  Over the years, we have enabled many thousands of local people to have a great time and make more friends!  We are now told we are "Social Entrepreneurs" and "Social Media Celebrities" and that our "Social Enterprise" has started something really special!  Wow, to have had such an impact - it's quite a thought!

IF YOUR LIFE HAS BEEN ‘TOO MUCH WORK & NOT ENOUGH PLAY’, JOINING US WILL TURN IT AROUND.

LIFE SHOULD BE MORE THAN JUST ‘WORK-TELLY-SLEEP’.  IMPROVE YOUR WORK/LIFE BALANCE TODAY!

IDEAL FOR SINGLES!  IDEAL FOR COUPLES! 

People join The Social Group looking to make friends and improve their social life.  A large number of our members are single, as the whole point is to provide something that you can go out to by yourself and have a ready-made ‘group of friends’ to socialise with, with hundreds of people from a variety of professions.  Both singles and couples!

IDEAL FOR ALL AGES!  

Some events are aimed more for younger ages (20's, 30's, 40's), some for older ages (40's, 50's, 60's), and some for a mixture of ages.  We have members in each age group, so you should find there are people of the right age for you!

Not everyone who joins is looking to find romance.  If you are just looking to make some friends and try new things, that’s absolutely fine.  We are not a ‘dodgy dating agency’ or ‘sad singles-only club’.  We are a respectable socialising organisation, which has proven to be a much better and much nicer way to meet people and make new friends. 

If you are looking for romance and hoping to meet that special someone, membership is ideal.  If you join a dating agency, you get to meet up with just one person at a time, so it is unlikely that will be the perfect someone.  While we offer the opportunity to meet hundreds of people of both sexes, all in a more natural and relaxed environment - so the odds of meeting that special someone for you are so much better!

Ours is a socialising organisation that is enjoyed by both singles and couples!  Married couples join us looking to expand their social circle, and other couples have met through the group and still enjoy taking part with all their other Social Group friends.  There’s all sorts of events and activities for both singles and couples to enjoy and join in with!  

You do need to join as a member before you come to anything.  Prior to joining, you can find out lots more about us by visiting our web sites - here you will find hundreds of photos of actual past events, giving you a real insight into the ‘group of friends’, and the sort of things we do, and enabling you to make an informed choice.
