I am not from the Midlands, but there was a NMP get together at Kingsbury Water Park in Sutton Coldfield back in 2005.

I think it was chosen for relatively easy road access if my memory serves me correctly. Unfortunately the thread has now gone.

I went to the get together at the water park and we had a really good time.

Just a few little points I would make. Firstly, get one person to take charge of the get together else it gets very confusing! Arrange a date and time and stick to it! Exchange mobile phone numbers for easy contact. Only agree to meet up if you know you will definately be there as a couple of meet up's have only resulted in a couple of people turning up when a lot more had been expected.

Ray and Kate,

Thanks for that. I know the Water Park and I have seen the pictures of your meet. Whilst it is relatively easy to find, I don't think it offers the same pleasures in February!!!!!!!

I agree with your points Kate and once some ideas had been thrown up I was going to take responsibility for organising with any support offered. I have pulled together people previously and I know how problematic it can be.....like I said to Kazzie.....a bit like herding cats!!

Thanks again both.

The nearest I can find is in Erdington - is that too far?

But give No Panic a ring as they have a directory of groups in their office. Phone 01952 590545.

22-01-13, 19:45
I wonder how much interest this would create now?
I'm guessing not enough interest &/or replies has been generated , Other regions seem to have more response with this sort of thing & posts are more forthcoming for interest, or it could be no-one wishes to take on the 'responsibility' of taking a lead to 'start the ball rolling', ?
I think its all down to lacking self confidence & fear of social anxiety, thats myself included btw untill I get to know & feel at ease with people :unsure:
