Hey everyone,

I’m looking for some genuine feedback and potential new ideas on a project I have thought of. I would love to know if there’s anything similar out there which is accessible for me to reach out to and discuss.

So, to provide a little bit of context to this, I suffered terribly from anxiety and depression and it’s something I still to this day have to battle.

Mock name - The Real World Club

My simple mission is to unplug people from screens and connect to the real world.

It’s easy to feel disconnected in such an over connected world and that’s why I want to offer events that are hands on, social and slightly nostalgic. I want to give those “real life” experiences in a digital world. Everyone is always watching things behind a screen now days and I want to be the change.

People within my age range (20-30) are experiencing excessive levels of screen time and unbeknownst to them it’s making them feel anxious towards face to face interactions and social events which in my own personal journey led to me being depressed and unable to even get out of bed in the morning.

I want to create a community that offers:

real conversations

shared experiences

time outdoors

creativity

new friendships

Log off. Show up. Connect

——————————

Initially, I want to maybe reach out to some local business such as cafes, pubs, gyms etc and ask if they would be happy to allow me to host such events in their property with no charge. I feel that’s fail proof for them as if no one was to turn up they haven’t lost anything but if people do turn up they will make money by selling snacks drinks etc.

Once this community grows and we have steady attendees I will then maybe charge the venue an amount to bring in this custom or charge the attendees a membership fee or even make events ticketed?

Then, I can start to expand and do weekend retreats away with the community and eventually I’m hoping that leads to business reaching out to me asking for me to host events for them.
