I started up HOFNAR a while ago because I like doing all kinds of stuff, but kept finding it harder and harder to get friends to come out and play!! I organise a range of events, from days out on the river and camping weekends to surfing or skiing holidays. Most of the people that do stuff with us come along on their own. I think this is mostly because it's SO difficult getting your friends to do anything a bit different. Most people are single in their twenties and thirties and come from all wa …

So I had been toying with this idea, to create a group for LGBT woman and men of colour for quite a while, as I've found it quite hard to meet people from similar cultural backgrounds on the scene.  So whether you're South Asian, African, Caribbean, Middle Eastern, or from whichever ethnic minority - it would be nice to get to know you, have some fun and share experiences. We could meet once a month. A coffee shop in Soho somewhere to start with, but every now and then - venture out and do diffe …

This group is a little more niche and helps to expand the portrayal of femme lesbians/bisexuals. We sometimes find it hard to meet other femme/lipstick lesbians/bisexuals or sometimes suffer stereotypes that we aren't really gay. (esp if you're bi and fem! Lol) So what better, than to create a group with like-minded fabulous women go out and explore new events. This group doesn't necessarily just refer to how you physically look but rather how you identify. You may feel like a fem, but physicall …

It all started on a boat on the Thames in the summer of 2009. The rest of the early story remains the subject of speculation but later that year an International group of London expats put together a series of house parties where strangers dressed in flamboyant colors met to casually drink, eat and dance rivaling any atmosphere you wish you could find at a club. It took the excuse of a birthday in July 2010 before the first 'public' event at the Mansion. Building on the positive feedback from ou …
