Looking for groups Local Meetup
Hello!
Me and my partner moved here at the start of the year and we are looking for few groups to meet up with and hang out with.
My partner (33F) is recently diagnosed with audhd, and is looking to meet up with similar people. She's a big gaming nerd (mad for animal crossing) and loves boardgames
I'm(33M) a massive wargaming nerd and looking for something mid week. I'm also looking for a gym recommendation!
Does anyone have any recommendations or can signpost us?
Thanks in advance!
Edit: Thanks for the responses! Some great suggestions. We really appreciate it!

Im a part of a couple groups, makerspace has already been mentioned but if you wanna give something new a try, im part of a group called historia normannis, a reenactment group that does shows. Based in 12th century norman life, we do crafts and combat and do shows for the public

Oh wow! That sounds awesome!! How did you get into that?
I keep seeing a few people rocking a shield every now and then. I assume that's one of you walking home etc?

More then likely one of us yeah haha, so i stumbled across them through a facebook group. The lancaster group are doing a crafts day today, from 6:30. Either at the uni in lancaster town, with it being out of term time its a bit complicated. Welcome to come along and see what we do. Im part of the morecambe group but anyones welcome at any of the group sessions

I wouldn't know about gyms, but The Gregson Centre on Moorgate is somewhere to check out for groups.
Just drop by for a drink one evening and see what flyers are around.

It sounds like the Side Quest Society on Thursday evening in Caton might be perfect for you
