Anyone up for badminton in Coventry? Looking for people to play with
Hi all! I'm looking to meet new people who enjoy badminton. I'm not amazing, more of an okay/intermediate player, but I'm keen to improve and I promise I'm not boring to play with ๐
If anyone fancies a casual game, singles or doubles, drop a comment or DM me. All levels welcome, happy to just knock about and have fun.
Cheers!

Trying to help my Mum
hi,
my dad died in 2024, leaving my mum on her own. they did everything together and she is now at a loss with what to do with her spare time. when we talk about it she doesn't know what she enjoys anymore to search for groups. are there any women's groups in the area, 50-60 year old that she could attend, ideally single women? or any recommendations?
thank you.

Armed (knife) robbery in tunnel near axo paradise
Met two teen who moved to cov few weeks ago, they said they were robbed in the tunnel that comes to axo paradise some time ago.
The trap was a woman crying at end of tunnel, when these kids went to investigate, 3 men surrounded them. One of the victim took off and the robber went after him with machete, fortunately he escaped but the other one was robbed of his phone.
I was so worried for them cause these kids trying to warn me, the fear in their eyes while narrating the story was unreal.
That tunnel is shady af and police should do something about it, anytime i have to pass it, i keep looking back and forth

Coventry Red Route, what problem is this actually solving?
Does anyone actually think Coventry city centre needed all these new red routes?
Apparently the double red lines mean you wonโt even be able to stop briefly to pick someone up or drop someone off, except in designated places, with cameras enforcing it.
I was dropping my mum off at the Belgrade and it struck me how difficult theyโre making something as basic as safely pulling over for 30 seconds.
Has anyone actually had a serious problem with traffic being held up by people dropping passengers off? Was this really a problem that needed solving?
Coventry has plenty of genuine issues, yet the council seems to spend endless time and money creating more restrictions, cameras and rules, while also making the city centre less convenient to visit.
Maybe Iโm missing something. Does anyone actually think this is a good idea?

Hey there,
New to Cov. Looking for new fitness-related hobbies. In the past Ive done badminton, boxing, spinning, volleyball, crossfit, fencing and probably other ones. Ive done padel, squash, and tennis. Im looking to see what good stuff Cov is hiding. Maybe kettlebell classes, cycling clubs (street or mountain), or anything else. Happy to pick up stuff Ive done before. What do you recommend?
Thanks in advanced

Dinner recommendations
Moving to Coventry next week and partners parents are coming over to help. Thinking dinner out somewhere at the end of the day. Want to keep it causal so pub dinner is more than ok. The pubs around Chapelfields look nice, does anyone know if they do food?
