Friendship and support with
Nene and Welland Oddfellows

Market Deeping-based friendship group, Nene and Welland Oddfellows, has over 400 members and hosts a variety of fun and welcoming events in the area. The group is open to all, though the majority of regulars are older adults or retired.

Regular events include meals out, craft clubs and a ‘Cold Pudding Club’. The group also arranges other activities, including a talk by Firetree Chocolate in July, quizzes, and visits to interesting places such as upcoming trips to Flatland Alpacas and Molecey Mill.

The Oddfellows is one of the oldest and largest friendly societies in the UK and its aim is to improve people’s lives through friendship and support.

There are opportunities to take part in fundraising initiatives. In recent years, Nene and Welland Oddfellows has raised significant amounts for The Exotic Pet Refuge and Three Counties Dog Rescue, and are the proud sponsors of the Under 9s Pinchbeck boys’ football team. This year’s charity is Deepings Community Library.
