Hi Jez

thank you for your encouragement. Indeed, this is the attempt to find my tribe :) I don't know about NorDev and similarly, I haven't come across Maptime or CodeClub yet. Are these groups or types of events? A quick search doesn't reveal anything relevant or UK-specific to me, so if you could send some more details, I would be grateful and make contact with them.

The only OSM-related group in my proximity seem to be the HOT group in Cambridge running the Missing Maps events which I recently joined. Having spoken to two of the co-organisers, they seem to be no OSM group as such in Cambridge and it is quite far away for me.

Apart from writing via this GB list, I plan to approach some individuals with the help of the Who is around me? tool (http://resultmaps.neis-one.org/oooc) over the next couple of days.

Thank you
Nora

Hi Nora,

As a mapper and OSMUK Director I would love to see you succeed. I am interested in how we enhance OSM all over the UK. I'm wondering whether partnering with an existing meetup such as NorDev to do a talk might shake some mappers out of the woodwork? or generate some new ones? Or whether Norwich could do with a Maptime or CodeClub? Or whether OSMUK could help?

Anyway, does anyone have any advice on 'finding you tribe' for real-life OSM meetups?...or is it a case of starting with one person and building slowly?

Regards,

    Hi fellow OSM companions in Norfolk,

    I’m trying to organise a meetup.

    /Why?/ I aim to revitalise the social side of mapping in the rural
    spheres of Norfolk. It would be great to get to know other local
    mappers from the area and to find out what other people are
    interested in or currently working on.

    /When?/ I suggest the 11th, 12th, 18th or 19th May 2019.

    /Where?/ I propose to meet at a public place like a pub or café in
    Norwich as suitable location for an initial meeting.

    If you are principally interested, it would be great if you could
    respond to me.

    Regards
    Nora
