The Group

ARE YOU UNATTACHED?

Many people find that spring is a time to reflect and make decisions about changes they would like in their lives. The Group, a Sussex club for unattached men and women aged 50+, has venues in Burgess Hill, Horsham, Lewes, Worthing and Brighton. It’s not a dating agency but it does offer a great opportunity to meet new friends of both sexes in a welcoming atmosphere.

Says Tricia Bentley, co-founder of The Group, “Organisations like ours attract more women than men. We’re not really sure why that is except that women generally tend to enjoy networking. The men who are our members would confirm, though, that it’s a very enjoyable club to be in and, once they’ve crossed the threshold, they all become actively involved with events.” says Tricia, “And we have a great time. So come on guys! Push open that door, come in and join us. You’ll be very welcome.”

There are walks, pub evenings, theatre trips, golf, lunches and dinners, holidays, and much more.

The Group has been going for 14 years and now has over 300 members. They’ve created a website, www.thegroup.org.uk, which tells you everything you need to know. Going into a room full of people you don’t know can be difficult, but not with The Group. You’ll get a good welcome. Where do they meet? The Group meet in Burgess Hill on the 2nd Monday of the month - take a look at www.thegroup.org.uk
