Diabetic Meet up in Kent

[Dan6]

@Type1Bri Thanks for that, its booked in on the calendar now for 26th Nov!

@Shar67 Bluewater would be a great idea nice and central for Kent. Probably best to start in Jan to avoid the christmas sales.

 

[Type1Bri]

Bluewater is 10 minutes from me so would be interested definitely.

Working on it! meetup charges so looking at options

 

[Shar67]

This forum is fine, don't need to go smaller, go big or go home.
3 people already onboard, I know a couple of others that may be interested.

 

[asparagusp]

Where does it say that?

 

[Type1Bri]

I wouldn't recommend going anywhere else to arrange this. The forum is where the T1D London ones began last year

Why? Just because your group started here, doesn't mean there aren't other ways to include. London is easier to set up. By joining meet up you can aim for people in Kent and indeed London.

 

[Type1Bri]

Fully agree there are many other ways to promote the meetups. Social media is a very powerful tool when used well, @Dan6

 

[Dan6]

Meet up charges once you try and set up a group. Maybe il start on here with a proper date in a new post im not great at setting up forums etc might go for facebook alongside this to do the admin part of it Late Jan suit you 2?

London is fine but there is life outside of it. We could be like the scouts, groups all around then a London jamboree, hosted by the London group

That would be pretty cool and it gives everyone the chance to network in person with other diabetics
