    Favourite non-sport Societies
    Hi Everyone

    Im just coming into my second year at Uni of Manchester. Annoyingly, at the start of my first year I injured my leg, so wasn't able to join any of the sports societies that I would have liked to. This combined with the fact that my flat mates were pretty wild, and really into clubbing (I've always been a bit more pubbish kind of guy ) meant I never really made a solid group of friends last year.

    Can anyone recommend any non-sporting (or at least not lots of running around) societies which they have found particularly fun, and don't revolve around around clubbing?

    Keen to hear anyones thoughts

    I've loved the Tea Society at my uni. Also the First Aid Group.

    Gaming society! They held an event once a week and usually went to a pub afterwards. You should enjoy it :awesome:
