What to expect at our events

Our events are open to everyone, and you’re very welcome to come along.

We ask people to sign in when they arrive, simply so we know who is present and for safety in the unlikely event of an emergency.

There’s no charge to attend, but if you’d like to make a small contribution towards our costs (around £3, by cash or card), we appreciate it.

At our Humanist Café events at Moordown Community Centre, you can make yourself at home—grab a tea or coffee and sit wherever you feel comfortable. At our Humanist Forum events at the Bournemouth Westcliff Hotel, you’re welcome to join one of the discussion tables.

We aim to create a friendly, relaxed, and open atmosphere, and we hope you’ll feel at ease.
