Looking for fun networking events for freelancers, founders, and remote workers in Hackney? Join Remotely Social for After WFH Drinks — the ultimate way to unwind after a week of working from home.
This time, we’re taking over The Bear’s Den, the private basement bar at the legendary Pub On The Park, one of Hackney’s most loved pubs overlooking London Fields. Expect casual after-work drinks, pool, beer pong, great music, and plenty of chances to meet new people building cool things.
🌟 Special Guest: Dan Draper – Podcaster & Radio Host
We’re excited to welcome Dan Draper, podcast host and radio presenter, for an inspiring fireside chat about overcoming self-doubt, building a career from scratch in broadcasting, and launching your own podcast.
In 2020 Dan decided he wanted more than a 9-5, and launched his podcast career focused around mental health. His podcast was the catalyst for a career that would take him to radio presenting, film acting and even onto the airwaves of BBC Radio 1.
Dan will share behind-the-scenes stories from his inspiring journey, how he turned passion into a career through hard work and determination, and actionable tips for anyone dreaming of starting a podcast or growing their personal brand through audio.
Whether you’re a freelancer looking for community, a startup founder wanting to connect with like-minded people, or a remote worker craving some social time away from your laptop, this event is for you. It’s networking without the hard sell – real people, real conversations, and zero pressure.
✨ What’s included:
