About

Bristol Social Groups is volunteer run site with the goal of building community and friendship across Bristol.

Background

There are many social groups in Bristol that are not listed or easily found on major event platforms, making these groups hard to find and take part in. This site intends to bridge this gap by providing a free, curated list of these missing groups.

It intends to share high-quality social groups that:

  • Are open to newcomers
  • Are well attended
  • Meet regularly
  • Are free or low cost
  • Have a shared, inclusive and proactively social activity

How can I help?

If you know a great social group in Bristol which is open to newcomers, please do suggest it to be added to the site.

If you have feedback or suggestions, please add them to this form.

As a developer, you can leave suggestions and feedback on this sites GitHub repository. Pull requests and other code contributions are welcome!

Development ethos

The site does not track users, does not display adverts and does not make any money from affiliate schemes or links.

The site aims for low data usage and low carbon emissions. This explains the general lack of images on the site, with the exception of small SVGs and map images.

Contributors

Thanks also to everyone who has submitted groups and feedback anonymously.
