NSGW in Oxford, August 2025!
On the 16th and 17th August 2025, over 30 guys took the risk and joined us for our pilot weekend in Oxford!
We explored some beautiful locations, went punting, had a picnic in the park and played Traitors, went to a jazz bar, had countryside walk and roast by the river.
With fun activities throughout and a weekend of making meaningful connections with gay guys, the pilot weeked in Oxford was a huge success.
Pictures and feedback below.
In fact, the guys enjoyed it so much that they texted all this feedback on the Whatsapp group without me even having to ask!
