What we’re about

Welcome to Bedford MeetUp Group!

We are a social group and we welcome friends of all ages.  Emphasis is put on enjoying ourselves by getting out and about; laughing, dancing, listening to music, walking, eating and drinking etc, together.  We are not a singles dating site; we are a social group.  We do however realise that relationships develop from friendships.

We want to host a variety of events, so please feel free to make suggestions.  If there’s something you’d like to do and we can at least find one other person to go with you, we consider it mission accomplished!

Lifts and travel to events can be shared, so please don’t be afraid to ask.  Just post a comment on the event to see if anyone can help. This is a private arrangement between yourselves.

Every Tuesday evening, we have a walk and a drink, in Bedford.  This is ideal for new members.  If you are nervous, about attending any event, please direct message Jane or Allan and we will chat with you and make sure you are welcomed and supported throughout the event.  You may also bring a friend to events, but you need to remember to add your friend, as a plus one, on the event page.

Membership

•      New members should pay £5 joining fee please, via PayPal to: [email protected]. This helps our community group pay annual fees to Meetup.

  • You will need an up-to-date photo of yourself to join the group.  This is so the hosts of the event are able to recognise you.

•      For events with restricted numbers, it is important that you don’t put your name down as attending, unless you are you are able to attend.  Likewise, if your circumstances change and you are no longer able to attend an event, please alter your attendance to ‘Not Going’ as soon as possible, so that another member can take your place.
•      If you have a complaint about anyone in the group, please contact Allan Letford or Jane Macdonald privately via direct message.  Anyone who cannot behave in an appropriate manner will be removed from the group.   The friendly, caring and welcoming culture of this group is very important to all of our members.
