Find New Friends in Nottingham
What's This Page All About?
Here are some ideas for meeting people in South Nottinghamshire - perhaps you are planning to study here, or you are relocating or moving to Nottingham and want some quick and easy ways to meet new friends? If you have a social group or know of any other good ways to meet new people, including but not just in Beeston or the South Notts suburbs, don't keep it to yourself - email !
One of the most successful parts of the beeston.biz website is the Sports / Social clubs section - loads of people have contacted us to join the new ten pin bowling and football teams, or tell us about the classes they attend in the area. The local Golf Courses page is one of the most popular within the website, and the same is true of the Martial Arts page.
Ideas For Meeting New People
We're aware of a number of websites that help people to meet each other - here is our current favourite:
My Single Friend - ever wanted to join a dating website but feel uncomfortable about writing a profile all about yourself? With My Single Friend you don't have to - just get a good friend to write a few short sentences about you!
Each member's entry within mysinglefriend.com includes a brief write up by a friend of that member, some comments on that write up by the member themselves, plus a few essential details - and best of all it costs nothing to browse!
Others to try:
- Facebook - register and join the Nottingham network, this seems to be a genuinely free resource!
- Nottingham IVC - weekly meeting plus many social events and activities organised by members, for members [non-profit making].
- Who's Your Neighbour? - a great idea, now neighbours can interact without knocking on doors!
No doubt you know of some other useful social websites yourself? Please tell us about them!
Often people who are moving to the Nottingham area contact us ahead of their moving date - a number of footballers have done this, and some are now regular players in a Sunday League team that Beeston.biz put them in touch with! The trouble with some football teams is that the current players keep themselves to themselves and are not too welcoming to new players - our Beeston.biz FC Five-a-side team could not be more different!
There is a great deal of interest locally in meeting new people and making new social contacts - but what if you hate sports, don't want to be the next 'Hong Kong Phooey' and just want to find some new drinking buddies?! It couldn't be easier - email !
*Protecting your contact details - please be assured that we don't give out any contact details to anyone unless it is agreed to beforehand. We don't send spam email messages to people whose contact details we have, and we don't try to sell you anything - this is a genuine opportunity to tell us who you are and what you're interested in, so that we can try to find other like-minded people.
Nottingham Trent Twins and Multiple Births Club
This local support group / club has been established for almost 30 years. Providing support and friendship to families with multiple birth children [twins, triplets, or even quads!] the NTT&MBC runs monthly daytime meetings for pre-school twins. Currently there are four regular meetings based in Carlton, Rise Park, West Bridgford and West Nottingham [the latter covers Beeston, Chilwell and Wollaton].
Monthly themed meetings are also held in the evenings - for example, April's meeting featured a speaker on special educational needs. Social events are organised, such as outings, picnics, shared 'pot luck' suppers, theatre trips and of course a Christmas Party and Pantomime trip. Most importantly the Nottingham Trent Twins and Multiple Births Club [a registered charity] produces a quarterly newsletter which goes out to all members [approximately 120 families].
As the NTT&MBC approaches its 30th anniversary this September, they would like to feature some twins [or their parents] who were members of the club when it first started, or at least during its early years, using a 'Where are they now?' format. If any Beeston.biz website readers were in the twins club 25-30 years ago could they please get in touch - - telephone Sue Dickinson on 0115 922 7502.
