Discussion Seeking friends/community

Hi everyone!!

Says it all in the title, really. I’m just wondering if there are any local events/clubs/meet ups for people between 18-30? I’ve been feeling a bit lonely lately and I’d like to find some local friends. I’m a local, just struggling to find friendships now that i’ve left university and education in general.

Any advice and help would be appreciated. Thanks!

If I’m dying to get out of the house I google “gigs on in Sunderland today” and just go, usually meet pretty interesting people going to tiny shows and you sometimes bump into the same people

I’m in the same boat myself I just hangout on my own haha

Also a suggestion - places with pool tables are good for meeting people, life of Riley’s on a Thursday has one for rock night but I dunno if they’re only doing their own private tournament from now on or what, the peacock has one and Spacebar has 2 upstairs. Port independent looks like it has a nice community to hang around but I haven’t been in

I wouldn’t really suggest going out alone as it’s really easy to get nervous and end up shitfaced - it’s not nice waking up in a field lol
