Women’s group grows to 100+ members in just two months.
The Shenanigan Society – friendship, fun, and a splash of mischief, all served with a slice of cake.
What started as a simple idea for a bit of fun has quickly turned into one of the most vibrant new women’s groups in the area. Founded just two months ago by local organiser Jo Wareham, The Shenanigan Society now boasts over 100 members across three thriving groups – and it’s already making a difference in the community.
With its refreshing, no-fuss approach to women’s socials – no committees, no rules, just laughter, connection, and cake – the Shenanigan Society has struck a chord with women of all ages looking for genuine friendship and feel-good fun.
“We wanted something that felt warm and welcoming – a place where women can just be themselves, try something new, and have a giggle,” says Jo. “The response has been incredible – it’s grown faster than we ever imagined!”
Food, Fun and Fabulous Outings
Members of the Shenanigan Society enjoy a wide range of events and activities, including:
A foodie group for women who love to cook and enjoy food, with monthly gatherings themed around a chef, cuisine, or seasonal twist – like June’s upcoming Midsummer Munch.
Group outings, including visits to Buckingham Palace’s State Rooms and Gardens and the YMCA Rooftop Garden in Milton Keynes
Relaxed coffee mornings and lunches, perfect for meeting new faces and making new friends
Monthly themed meetings, featuring speakers, activities, birthday celebrations, and of course – plenty of tea and cake
Giving Back
While the focus is firmly on fun and connection, Shenanigans also has a big heart. Through member raffles, the group has already raised £425 for MK Act, the Milton Keynes-based charity supporting those affected by domestic abuse.
“This is about women lifting each other up – and it’s really special to see that spirit extend into supporting such a vital local cause,” says Jo.
Join the Shenanigans
The Shenanigan Society is open to all women who fancy a little fun without the faff – whether you’re new to the area, ready to meet new friends, or just want to try something different.
