✨About Us✨

We’re Lavinia & Shaun, and we created Unplugged Lounges to offer something a little different — a space to slow down, take a breath, and connect without screens getting in the way. This first event is the start of something we hope will grow into a regular fixture in Stapleford.

Come along, help us launch, and be part of the very beginning.

Info: Arrive, check in, and switch off your phone (safe storage available if you’d like). Settle in before we begin.

Info: A short introduction from the organisers.

Info: Bring a book, journal, or craft — or simply enjoy some stillness. A chance to focus on yourself without distractions.

Info: Enjoy refreshments and conversation in small groups, meeting new people in a relaxed setting.

Info: We’ll gently wrap up the evening. This is the time to switch your phone back on (or collect it if you handed it in), swap details with new friends, and book your place at the next Unplugged Lounge.
