About this event
This “**Lisbon Newcomers Welcome Club**” gathering is for people who are new to Lisbon or want to welcome them, and increase their number of connections. The first meetup was held November 2021 and since we have welcomed 1180+ people to these events. Each event creates new bonds between newcomers to Lisbon and those who have been here for a while in a simple, fun, yet effective way.
Your host for this event will be Richard with support from our amazing team of volunteers: Agnieszka, Debbie, Giselle, Gloria, Vanessa, Jacqui, Magdalena, Gui, and others.
For those interested in volunteering we are going to a nearby bar after the event, where you can meet team members and find out more about what’s involved. please approach Richard or other team members if that sounds like you and we will invite you along.
We want to strengthen our connections with local Portuguese people and groups who are interesting in getting to know positive new arrivals in Lisbon. Please help us with that. If you want to help with our events or partner with us, great. Apply [here](https://forms.gle/EeLboZcYBrLesVt26).
Our events are open and welcoming to people from all backgrounds. You will be surprised to see how many different nationalities come together at these events.

We aim to be a local community of internationally minded people in the heart of Lisbon. You are welcome to be a part of it.
The idea is to maintain and sustain the community spirit that sometimes emerged during Covid and help build back better and stronger than before.
