Welcome to the Newcomers MK Community Meetup and Launch Event
If you are new to Milton Keynes and looking for networking, career guidance, and essential financial/business support, this event is for you. Whether you arrived last week or last year, if you're still finding your feet in MK, this is essential. And if you've lived here for ages and remember what being new felt like? We need you too.
Date: Sat. 22nd Nov. 2025
Time: 1pm
Location: YMCA Conferencing Facilities, Milton Keynes
What's Actually Happening
We're bringing together newcomers and locals for an afternoon of useful information and genuine connection. No sales pitches. No awkward forced networking. Just practical stuff you need to know and real people building community.
You'll hear from:
- A Local Entrepreneur: What support actually exists, how to navigate the local business landscape, and what they wish they'd known about starting a company in MK.
- A Financial Professional: Managing money in a new city, understanding UK financial systems (budgeting, investment), and building confidence with your finances.
- A Newcomer Success Story: Their honest story of moving to MK, the challenges, and how they went from struggling to thriving.
Then a proper Q&A where you can ask anything.
Who Should Come?
Newcomers - Just moved or still settling in
Students - New to the city
Families - Recently relocated
Locals - Want to help and connect
If you're open to building community, come.
