Question 5

Is parking available?

Accepted Answer

Not at the host location, however you are welcome to seek paid or free parking locally.

Question 6

Do I have to share my own story?

Accepted Answer

No, if you'd prefer to just listen or observe, that is absolutely fine. Many Locals are looking forward to sharing their own experiences  so just having interested members of the community who want to listen is a welcome gift as well.

Question 7

Can I do anything to prepare for the event?

Accepted Answer

No preparation is required. However if you'd like to think about the event's theme/prompt, and a story you might want to share related to it, you can do that.

Question 8

Do I have to prepare for this event?

Accepted Answer

No. You can come as you are. Our only ask is that you are respectful, inclusive, and welcoming to other Locals at the event.

Question 9

What is a Give & Get Session?

Accepted Answer

Part of Community is being able to rely on each other, sharing local stories, local values, and building local customs. This part of every event is the opportunity to offer to give something (time, experience, physical items, etc.) or ask for something (help, support, teaching, etc.).

Question 10

Can I bring last minute guests?

Accepted Answer

Our events currently have a cap of people simply due to space. Thus, we respectfully ask that you only bring other guests who have registered for the event. If we find our Locals want to grow in size, we can look to larger locations.

Question 11

Can I help to sponsor or support an event financially or in kind (food, drinks, other services)?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely- see our website (TheLocals.Events) where we outline ways you can support your Locals.

Question 12

Do I have to live or work in NW3?

Accepted Answer

At least one of the persons in your party needs to. The reason for this is to ensure we all have a common foundation and a jumping off point upon which to build relationships.
