We’re looking forward to welcoming our members to this month’s Friday Frolics, which will be held at Mama’s Kitchen, Southampton. This gathering will be particularly meaningful, as it will be one of the final opportunities to host an event before the venue sadly closes its doors. Mama’s Kitchen is a valued part of Southampton’s independent hospitality scene, and we know many of our members will have enjoyed meetings, coffees, lunches and celebrations there. It has always provided a welcoming setting for conversation and connection - something that aligns perfectly with the spirit of our monthly networking events. Oh, and it just so happens the food is fantastic too. Thankfully, we're pleased to say, the truck and events side of the business will still be running for private hire. As always, there’s no formal agenda, just good company, great conversations, and the chance to build valuable relationships within the Southampton property community.   We look forward to seeing you there.   🗓 Friday 27th February 2026 ⏰️ 13:00 - 15:00 📍 Mama's Kitchen
