Weymouth Gay Group
Friendship, chat, support, food, drinks & a laugh! Meeting in Weymouth Pubs & Bars.. Welcome to our TENTH Birthday year of events!
TEN years ago a small group of us discovered that nothing was happening in Weymouth for gay & bi guys (18+). So we made it happen! Just meeting informally once a week in a corner of a pub .... and we still do today, but now TWICE a week! We just like to chat, have a drink and meet new guys .... we found that many of you liked the same too!
Check out all our website pages for group info and meetings, plus loads of other local lgbt info, events (over 30 most months), bars, groups, helplines and more ....

Sad news ... Good bye Rodney
It is with great sadness that we ended Thursday evening (Sept 13th) with the very sad news that one of our much loved guys died in his sleep. It had been a brilliant evening in the Swan pub with Gay West guys visiting. Just the sort of evening our Rodney would have enjoyed chatting with everyone.

GDPR - Your data Is it safe? Are we an "organisation" or not?
We have had lots of conflicting advice about the recent change with GDPR. We thank our sister/brother groups esp - Taunton Gay Group for comments and advice. Plus the IT guys in our own group. We continue to seek guidance about this issue. We really are just a small group of guys in a corner of a pub, with no formal organisation.
We only store your email contact info in order to reply to your enquiry. We may wish in the future to send you information about our group and local lgbt events, news & info. We do not produce a newsletter as most guys keep up to date with whats going on by attending our pub meet ups or checking our web site frequently, which we keep updated. Should we decide in the future to produce a WGG newsletter, we will have a system for people to opt into it. Sometimes an email is sent to the regular guys who attend our events, (and they have already provided us an email for this purpose,) this may be to inform them/you of last minute venue change or other news/info.
Recently we emailed everyone on our email list to ask if they wish to be included on our data. (Sorry was a data problem with that!) If you have contacted us in the past, and wish your email to be removed from our records, please let us know and we will do so.
We are looking for someone with IT knowledge to volunteer to run our WGG IT, website, FB etc. Apply at our pub meet ups! - as said above... we really are just an informal bunch of guys meeting in a corner of a pub. Sometimes we make mistakes too (we are sorry!), but it will really help us avoid any future issues if someone can volunteer to help us with our online communications.
