Introductory Silly Hat Social
For our first social we'll help you to find us by wearing an
assortment of hats. You are welcome to bring your own hat (silly or
otherwise) - but don't worry if you "forget"! Turn up any time after
7.30pm in the Epi Bar on the 3rd floor of the Union Building.... or more
likely the adjoining Cafe Zuma cos it gets quite busy in Freshers' Week.

just turn up from 8pm.

Ravenshill Wood (aka The Alfrick Weekend)
This is a date to keep clear in your diaries! At this nature reserve
in Worcestershire we'll have a choice of tasks (such as building fences,
improving paths, surveying nest boxes, coppicing and more). The
wardens are really friendly and because they live on the reserve we get
lovely hot lunches provided. Accommodation on the Saturday is in a
village hall and there's a nice pub just down the road. There will be a
small charge to cover costs.
Pick-ups are on Saturday at 8am union,
8.15am Arches, 8.30am Stoke Bishop shop. For the benefit of anybody
meeting us there, we're starting work at 10am and staying in Alfrick
village hall.

Pub Social
So you didn't like the idea of sitting underneath evil patio heaters
at the Highbury Vaults? Don't worry, we'll be properly indoors for our
next social at Micawbers (pub) on St Michaels Hill. Join us there from
7.30pm onwards. If you haven't been to a social or task yet then it's
never too late.
