OutdoorLads.com is a UK wide organisation aimed predominantly at gay and bisexual men who are interested in taking part in a range of sporting and outdoor pursuits. Having said that, the group does not discriminate against anyone as long as they agree with their aims and objectives. It's proven itself an excellent way to meet new friends and try new activities.

Events and taster sessions that OutdoorLads organise over the year are exceptional - whether on water, underwater, overground and underground. There really is something for everyone and in all regions of the country.

As well as keeping an eye on the REALManchester listings, you can sign up on their website if you want to be kept informed of forthcoming UK events. Signing up is free, so anyone interested can find out more about what's on and the sort of people you're likely to meet. There'll be no stopping you doing something a bit different and expanding your social network at the same time!
