Hi and welcome to Derby Sociables.

Why not come along and meet other new(ish) members and experience the Derby Sociables welcome for yourself.
People join Derby Sociables every week and we understand it can be quit daunting attending your first event so tonight is an opportunity to meet fellow new members.
Myself (Russ) and Janis will be hosts for the night where we will have a friendly chat and answer any questions.

This Meetup event is open to any members that have attended less than 3 events with Derby Sociables to date

I will send you contact details/information the night before the event.

We look forward to meeting you….

There is no need to RSVP “NO” if you are not going … unless you initially say “YES” then decide to change your mind.
