growing old disgracefully has a network of local groups throughout the UK. Each has its own programme of events and activities.
Most groups meet monthly, in houses, or meeting rooms, or the group may sometimes choose to go out on excursions.
Your local group may hold workshops, do various creative activities, have discussions or just relax and enjoy each other’s company.
When you enquire about membership, we send you an information pack with a list of the local Group Contacts, so you can contact the one nearest to you. Group Contacts also
receive a list of prospective members, so they can contact you to give you more details. You will be able to visit a local group up to three times to see if it is right for you, before you decide to join.
If there is no group in your area yet - and you think you would like to set one up, we give you both practical and financial help to do this, with support from experienced members.
We also have the Cybergoddies, an email group, who "meet" with each other on line. 
Some Cybergoddies are in a local group as well, some are not.
There is also a penfriends group, the Lone Rangers for those who want to be a member of g.o.d, but not in a group.
You can join the local group that is nearest to you, or that is easiest for you to get to. The postcode generally indicates the address of the contact person. In a few cases it is the address of the group's regular meeting place.
