Just moved to Shoreham by Sea

[margot123]

Hi there, I've just moved over here with my parter and 11 months old son. It's a great area and we're absolutely loving it! The only issue is....we don't know anyone yet... As I'm not working at the moment I'm getting a bit bored. Is there anyone around who would like to meet up for a coffee?

Maybe we can even create a group and do something weekly (or am I getting overexcited now;)). Hope to hear something soon. I'm 34 and originally from The Netherlands.

sorry posted in the wrong place

No you didn't, Shoreham is West Sussex.

Hi, I can see that you have been in Shoreham for about 2 months now but if you are still interested in meeting up, I have just moved here and would love to meet someone. I have a daughter who is 2 and am from California originally. Or, if you know of any baby, toddler groups, I cannot seem to find any other than the library... which is great but only 2 days a week and with winter coming and rain, I'll need more indoor activities.

Hi, I used to take my son to Lancing leisure centre occasionally for indoor play if it was rainy here, or scroll down for musical bumps. It's only along the flyover, takes about five minutes if you have a car. Or we used to do the ducklings swimming at the King Alfred in Hove. I'm afraid we weren't really into Mother and Toddler groups so I can't help you there.

Hi,
We also just moved here. We'd love to get to know other Mums and children- I have 2 boys, aged 4 and just-about-2. We're up near Henfield but have been in Shoreham almost every day this summer at the beach enjoying the amazing weather. We're also wondering what we can get up to now the rain is setting in!
Poofie- we moved from Denver, Colorado so it would be great to meet another from the US (although I am the British one- DH is American, I just miss our Denver home and the USA!)
Hope everyone is settling in, would be good to hear how you all are.

Hi only just seen your message.

Yes I love Shoreham beach:) but I agree it's so much more difficult to find things to do now it's raining. Would you still be interested in meeting up? I met a few people around here (everyone is so friendly:)) but the more the merrier. Would be nice to hear from you!

Greetings margot123

Hi,
We are moving to shoreham/southwick from Surrey in December. I have a 4 and 5 year old who are probably going to go to St Niolas and St Mary's c of e school in shoreham. I am so nervous as will be leaving my part time job, will have a new school for kids and won't know anyone!! Are there any meet ups planned for the new year as id love to come along. Where are the best places to go to when you don't know anyone?!
Thanks and can't wait to get to the sea and meet lots of lovely people xxx

I have't got a meet up panned yet but I'm really keen to get one or several sorted for the new year, watch this space and I will hopefully have details of something.

Most importantly, have a lovely time in your new home, enjoy the sea and welcome to the area. :)
