BesidesWork – A New Social Experience For Londoners

For solo Londoners looking for adventure and meaningful friendships, BesidesWork is a new membership-based social discovery solution. It connects its members to curated group activities to bond through unforgettable experiences.

The London-based startup aims to connect like-minded Londoners aged 25 to 45 through curated boutique experiences.

Groups of up to six people are matched to participate in mystery hard-to-do-alone activities. Event details remain undisclosed until arrival, adding to the spontaneity for participants.

However, members can select their preferred activity type via BesidesWork’s socials menu. Activities are categorized into five types, including ‘Arts and Culture’, ‘Exploration and Adventure’, and ‘Sports’.

To join an event, individuals must first choose from three available membership options, each offering monthly credits for booking activities. Membership prices range from £25 to £99 per month.

Founded by a former Morgan Stanley employee, BesidesWork is on a mission to combat loneliness and facilitate genuine connections among Londoners.

Whether you’re a London native or a newcomer, it hopes to provide the opportunity to explore the city, make new friends, and create lasting memories. Some of the experiences facilitated by BesidesWork so far include secret gigs, creative art workshops and badminton games.
