**We’ve got a very special birthday coming up… and we’re getting ready to celebrate, as on Friday 13th November, The Great Friendship Project turns FIVE** 👏 Yep, it's crazy to think that just five years ago, on a chilly Sunday afternoon on Hampstead Heath, twelve strangers showed up for our very first social walk. Since then, we’ve hosted over 750 activities across London, from games nights, picnics and brunches to silent discos, helping 20s and 30s build lasting friendships in a city that doesn’t always make it easy. Along the way, our journey has taken us to 10 Downing Street, onto the BBC and even to collecting a global award for our work building social connection 🌍 To mark the occasion, we’re hosting a **big birthday party** packed with games, activities and a few little surprises to celebrate five years of friendship and the people who’ve made it all possible 💛 It’ll be a lovely chance to look back at the past five years, reconnect with friends you’ve made along the way and make some new ones too - before we round off the night with music and dancing to celebrate in style 🪩 Whether you’ve been coming along for years, joined us recently or are thinking of trying your very first event, you’re very welcome to join us for this. But as always, space is very limited - so do nab your spot ASAP if you’d like to come along! **\- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \-** **WHERE/WHEN** Venue Address: The Ministry, 79-81 Borough Rd, London SE1 1DN ([https://maps.app.goo.gl/jSYqMZPyUCgSeMKXA](https://maps.app.goo.gl/jSYqMZPyUCgSeMKXA)) Nearest Tube Stations: Borough (10 mins walk) and Elephant & Castle (15 mins).
