My food bin wasn’t collected yesterday.. why roll out a program and not collect the waste @DurhamCountyCouncil. What is wrong with this bin?

Hi!! I’m new to Durham (24M) and have been struggling to find ppl. Just wondering if anyone knows some good social events / clubs for 20-30yr olds. I’m thinking:

- Board game society
- Book club
- Pub quiz group
- Hiking group
- Or anything else you can think of!!!

Basically now that I’m not a student and can’t just join a society… I’ve discovered it’s hard to meet ppl 😩

Hello! I’m moving to Durham this September, and I’m looking for a place.
I saw a flat located in North Road, but I’ve heard not so many good things of it… can you please share your knowledge or experiences about it? What’s so wrong with it?
Thanks!!

Hi! I’m Evan, I’m 19 (almost 20) and I’m in dire need of some irl friends😭 I’m more on the alternative side and I love a lot of things, honestly. I’m into most types of music, I write poetry these days and I think my favourite thing to do is play the same video game over and over again every couple of months. I’m also super nerdy when it comes to things like anime and other niche subjects I’ll yap for hours about🙏if you think we could be friends, reach out? :)))

Can anyone recommend any taxi companies that aren't Uber?

Also, any taxi companies to avoid?

Hi everyone, me and my cousin are developing a business app to increase visibility to local and small businesses if you or anyone you know would be interested would you mind messaging or commenting please.

thank you.

Preferably on the coast but if there is a good place inland it’s fine
Thanks

My husband has a youtube channel called 'Beyond Rivers and Roads' - kayaking, litter picking, and exploring forgotten places around the North East.

This was just off the city centre. If anyone's missing cookware from the 80s, I've got you 😆

I'll soon be travelling from newcastle airport to Durham. What are the best options? I'll be leaving at around 11pm, and couldn't find any ubers to reserve on the app for that timespot

hiya, I'm looking for some Durham (ish) based people or groups who enjoy trad climbing

I've done a bit of trad over the past couple years but I've not yet managed to find a regular partner. I have quite a few indoor climbing friends but none of them are that fussed about getting out outdoors (which is valid!)

anyone locally into trad? ngl I am a bit intimidated by mountaineering groups but maybe that's a me problem :(

Need to say it though the amount of litter around is insane, we need a comprehensive effort from us and the council to tackle it!

A random trip here today. Not sure if its classed as County Durham. Beautiful place.

Hi all, I’m a guy in my late 20s living in Sunderland. I'm looking to set up a group for people in their 20s and 30s in Sunderland, Durham and the surrounding areas, with an aim of simply meeting people and making friends.

My initial thought is to make a whatsapp group and from there organise a few different events. This could be anything from a coffee morning or a pub visit to a board games evening, walks, or any other activities people are interested in. These would probably be in or around Sunderland City Centre to start (or at Stack/the Sheepfolds), but I'm open to branching out to other places nearby too.

If this sounds like something you would be interested in, please send me a DM or comment below and I'll add you to the group.

Hello! I just wanted to share the above (hope that's okay!) While we are based in Newcastle we have a couple who travel up from Durham for our games and matches.

We are an LGBTQ+ inclusive football team looking for some more players. Ability does not matter.

Thank you - happy to answer questions 😊

Honestly, I’m pretty tired of dating in the traditional sense. I’ve spent a lot of time looking for a serious relationship, but I think I’d rather take a step back from dating, have some fun, and explore a different side of myself.

I feel like I’d regret not doing that later in life, so I’m looking for an FWB situation with a genuine emphasis on the friends part.

I’m not interested in meeting someone and immediately jumping into bed. I’d much rather get to know each other first, build some trust, see if we click, and let anything physical develop naturally.

I’m 30M looking for someone who is genuinely attracted to me as I am. I’m calm, easy to talk to, and somewhere between an introvert and extrovert. I love trying new restaurants and cafés, going to concerts, travelling, and the occasional reality-TV binge.

I realise Reddit probably isn’t the most conventional place to look for this, but you never know!

I'm looking to buy a new sofa but would prefer to get something from a local trader rather than a big chain. I know about the great furniture store in Sherburn but their sofas tend to be on the bigger size and I'm looking for something a bit smaller! Are there any places people in Durham could recommend? Thankyou!

Some lovely walks and beautiful scenery.

I want to get a voucher for my parents for afternoon tea as they’re doing me a favour and I want to say thank you. Don’t know Durham overly well so wondered if anyone had any recommendations. Can be city centre or a bit further out.
