Welcome! We are a (fairly) new NWR group based around the Broomhill part of Sheffield. The group is now up and running with a programme of events and meetings planned, and we would welcome any new members wanting to join us.

NWR meetings are the perfect opportunity to meet new people and make more local friends. Perhaps you are new to the area? Or perhaps your working hours or family commitments have changed? Our regular meetings cover a variety of topics and activities, and we generally meet either in a local pub or at one of our houses. Alongside our planned meetings, we frequently meet up on an informal basis, most often to enjoy coffee and cake! We are a supportive and friendly group; there is no obligation to contribute to discussions. Our focus is friendship and fun.

NWR membership costs £37 annually (less than a monthly cup of coffee), and in addition to access to local face to face group meetings it provides national on-line meetings, talks, exercise classes, virtual book clubs and Facebook groups, as well as a quarterly magazine, Connect.

Contact Maureen or Ruth using the Contact button above, if you are interested in coming along to any of our meetings and you will receive
