Oddfellows Friendship Month

Request your free info pack

Say YES to friendship this September

Because having a good set of friends around you makes all the difference to your happiness.

And that's why, every September, we stage our national celebration of friendship. It's all about bringing people together to enjoy each other's company, and promote the benefits of getting involved in a local friendship group such as the Oddfellows.

Teas, talks, lunches and walks – you'll find all sorts of exciting taster events on offer throughout the month. Plus plenty of free online events to enjoy from home.

Take a look at what events are coming up near to you and give your local Oddfellows friendship group a try. Or get in touch and request a free local info pack.

Everyone's invited.

Online open days

We've upped our schedule of online open days for September. So if you're curious to learn a little more about us before heading along to a taster event, then sign up for a session and we can say our first hellos remotely.

The open days are just over an hour long, held over Zoom, and a perfect opportunity to get a feel for us and what you can expect from becoming a member.
