SheHerTheyThem - East London’s favourite community-building social initiative for queer women, trans, intersex, nonbinary and gender nonconforming individuals - is back for 2023 with our new monthly socials! Our regular events, held at our favourite Newham venue Tracks, are designed to help you find and connect with others in our community in a fun, friendly and safe environment.
THURSDAY SOCIAL
Our July 6th Thursday social at Tracks Bar in Forest Gate will be bringing the summer vibes with an old skool Garden Party! We'll have our usual selection of games and creative activities, maybe even a workshop or two, and our resident DJ Queen of Escalation will be bringing her uplifting sounds. Expect cocktails, mocktails and BBQ vibes as we make the most of the long summer evenings.
As ever, it’s not essential that you get involved in the activities organized for the evening, you are welcome to join in as much or as little as you would like. This social especially is intended to be super relaxed. Come play some games (or don’t!), catch up with friends, enjoy a date night, come solo and meet new people - whatever kind of evening you want to make it - SheHerTheyThem is a local safe space here for the community that is looking forward to welcoming you!
Expect all the usual SheHerTheyThem Community Building extras, including Personals, mini-zines, games, information and advice and good vibes.
SOLOS TABLE
As always, we'll have a space dedicated to those of you flying solo who are looking to meet and make connections within our community. Look for the pansexual flag and find your place!
PAY WHAT YOU CAN
As with all our events, we are operating a Pay What You Can policy. All donations we receive go back into organising and supporting the SheHerTheyThem events, community and causes.
Not sure what to pay? We suggest a sliding scale depending on your situation and financial circumstances.
Unwaged / Low Income: For those who stress about being able to meet their basic needs, our suggested donation is £1-3.50.
General: For those comfortably able to meet their basic needs, our suggested donation is £5-10.
Pay It Forward: For those comfortably able to meet their basic needs and wanting to use some of their disposable income to help others in the community, we suggest a donation of £15+.
NO TERFS, NO SWERFS, NO CIS MEN
Our mission continues to decentre cis male energy from our Queer community and build a platform for the marginalised and minoritised LGBTQ+ voices in a space that supports and encourages collaboration and connection. Our entry code is simple - no TERFS, no SWERFS and no Cis Men allowed in the space*. Cis Men are welcome to support our community by donating to our causes, educating themselves on why we need events such as this, and respectfully allowing us our space. Cis-het women are welcome to join as allies to our events, but please be respectful that this space is for the queer community.
*Please note that some members of Tracks' staff are cis men who will be present, but be assured they understand and support our policy and event.
