How do I join The Lonely Girls Club?
There are two ways to join our community. Either by signing up for our newsletter or joining our Facebook community for your cities branch here.
Do I need to have a Facebook account?
Nope! You can become a member of The Lonely Girls Club simply by signing up to our newsletter, everything will be emailed out to you straight to your inbox.
How do I register for events?
Lonely Girls Club events are exclusively for community members. Sign up to the Facebook group or newsletter here to join the community. From there you will be given the password to register for our events which can all be found here on our website.
How do I get the member password?
To register for our events and access our members area you need the LGC member password.
There are two ways to join our community and become a member (it's free!) either by signing up to our newsletter or joining our Facebook community for your city.
The member password is in a pinned post at the top of all of our Facebook communities, and is in all of our email newsletters including the welcome email sent out to all new community members. If this email isn't in your inbox we recommend checking your junk, spam or promotions folders.
Where are you based?
We currently have four branches, London, Manchester, Nottingham & Birmingham.
What does an "unavailable" button on an event mean?
If an event has a button or marker on it that says "unavailable" this could mean one of two things:
- Registration hasn't yet opened for that event, please click through to the event page to find out the exact date & time that registration opens later down the line.
- The event is sold out with the waiting list open.
To check which is the case for the event you are interested in all you need to do is click through to the individual event page, and all the details will be outlined in the bio.
Will you be coming to my city in the future?
We’ll be opening more branches of The Lonely Girls Club in 2024, so keep an eye out for announcements and updates!
How often do you run events?
We run events every week across the UK. For Manchester & Nottingham this is once or twice a month and for London this is pretty much weekly.
Do you just do walks?
Not at all. Our Walk Club is actually a new addition to our schedule. We run a whole host of events from brunches to friendship speed dating, karaoke to craft sessions and more! You can see the full list of upcoming events on our website or the events tab of your cities Facebook group.
Can I come to an event on my own?
Of course! Lonely Girls Club events are designed for you to attend solo and leave having met a group of lovely people to begin building friendships with. 95% of people attend Lonely Girls Club events on their own so most people are in the same boat and will totally understand how you’re feeling.
Do you have an age limit?
The only age restriction for our community is that members need to be over 18.
What is included in my ticket?
Some of our events include an activity, food, drink, goodie bag or additional elements, if this is the case this will be fully listed and outlined on the registration page.
Unless explicitly stated on the individual event registration page, your ticket is solely to attend the Lonely Girls Club event and does not include anything further.
If you have questions or queiries around a specific event cost, and what is or isn't included, then please reach out to us prior to booking a ticket and we'll be able to assist.
Is the venue accessible?
Each event that we run is hosted at a different venue, which will have different layouts and capabilities for those with accessibility needs.
We always aim to ensure that every venue we use and event that we run is in a fully accessible venue to accomodate all community members, but on occasion this isn't possible.
If you have specific accessibility needs please do reach out to us via email prior to booking on for an event so that we can confirm that the venue has everything in place to ensure that you will be able to attend and access all elements of the event in the best way!
As per the booking policy and terms of service you agree to when registering, we do not offer refunds unless we have to cancel an event. So if you do have concerns or questions regarding accessibility please get in touch before booking a ticket so that we can make sure these are answered in full to give you all the information you may need!
Can I just turn up to an event on the day?
Unfortunately, not. For all Lonely Girls Club events registration is required, you can never just turn up on the day as all of our venues have a maximum capacity that we need to adhere to. So make sure that you sign up to our newsletter or join our Facebook group for your city so you never miss a beat!
I'm a little shy or anxious, what's the best event for me to come to?
If you're a little shy or anxious about coming to an event then we'd always recommend coming to a smaller or activity based event first, vs a larger party or girls afternoon.
Smaller or activity based events are a bit less overwhelming and scary for some community members and personality types. If the event is activity based this also then gives you something to talk to others about during the time together.
Got questions about our recommendations on event types? Do get in touch and we'll be able to advise further!
Your walks look too big for me...
We totally get it! For some people big events aren’t your thing, and that’s why we run a variety of events each month that involve different activities, locations and have different capacities, so that there’s something for everyone.
Can I work or collaborate with The Lonely Girls Club?
Pop us an email! We always love hearing from and working with other organisations that want to support, uplift, connect and empower women!
Can I be added to the waiting list for an event?
Yes, if the event that you want to attend is sold out, then you can be added to the waiting list in case someone drops out.
To be added to this please get in touch with us via email or the contact form here on the website.
Do you offer refunds?
No, as outlined in the terms of service and booking policy we do not offer refunds unless we have to cancel an event. By booking on to join us for an event you are agreeing to this policy and accept that no refund will be processed to you unless the event is cancelled by us.
You can read the full terms of service & booking policy here.
Do you have a WhatsApp group?
No, the Lonely Girls Club does not run, host or facilitate chat groups on WhatsApp, Messenger or any other chat platforms.
Sometimes our community members create these and share them in our digitial forums, however these are not associated with, hosted or managed by us.
How long does it take to be approved to join the community?
Signing up to our newsletter membership stream is instantaneous, your welcome email with your member password should arrive in your inbox within 5 minutes. If it hasn't then we recommend checking your junk, spam and promotions folders, and then adding our newsletter email address to your saved senders.
Approvals for our Facebook communities can take up to 3 days at busy periods whilst we go through all join requests.
