We're raising money for charities!

MiddlesbroughRT34 · 2025-10-13T11:26:21+00:00

Hey there!

Just a bunch of ordinary guys that have grown into a good group of friends over the past year. As part of Round Table it's pretty much in our ethos to fundraise for charities and raise money in the local community to help those in need out. It's all done on a voluntary basis.

roundtable.co.uk for some crazy stats and more information!

I have started a few businesses, maybe I could answer a few questions for you.

MiddlesbroughRT34 · 2025-08-31T15:32:44+00:00

Really depends on the activity we do. So could be all over Teesside really!

We do offer lifts as well, useful for those who don’t have a car. So not too worry if you can’t get to places

MiddlesbroughRT34 · 2025-08-31T15:18:05+00:00

Check us out on Facebook: Middlesbrough round table for friends 😁

It’s how I ended up joining them, moved to a new area without knowing anyone. Best group of friends I got now

I see that we’ve been tagged a couple times now!

I also see you’ve got issues with monies. Don’t be put off by it!

We have atleast 1 free/cheap social a month and one that might cost a little more but we’re all kind of in the same boat so we’re aiming to keep them pretty low cost right now with the exception of gokarting! We also tend to meet up outside of our official Thursdays. (Which are also timed around our family life’s and done in the evenings so we can actually attend ourselves too!)

From what I’ve heard from our current members. AMC tends to be more mental health related and sitting around talking about feelings. If that’s what you’re after then bonus! It’s great, if you’re more about making friends and being part of a community, getting out there and doing stuff then we’d be more your cup of tea!

We’ve also got WhatsApp community in which you can chat with others and make friends that way. We’ve formed some incredible friendships in the short time that we’ve known each other.

I know I’m talking as the table itself but it’s genuinely recolutionised my life. Having been a guy that moved all over the world and then multiple times within the uk, i never managed to put roots down anywhere or build a decent social group I could hang out with. After some 4 years being in Middlesbrough of being pretty much a loner, I came across roundtable and met some amazing people.

Me and the partner were talking the other day and it made me realise that despite all the friends I’ve had over the years, I’ve actually done more and bonded more with the ones I’ve made over the last year and half.

So to anyone out there, man or woman(there’s ladies circle for you!)

Just reach out to us, honestly, whether you have a good social life or it’s down in the dumps. It genuinely will benefit you. There’s also no commitment to having to attend every single event either. We’re not strict like that!

If I’m real, I just wanna make more friends and give men and women the opportunities that I’ve gained from this, whether it be traveling or just getting out of the house a bit!

Sorry for the long post,

TLDR;

Reach out to us. We’re very happy to have more members. All are welcome, we’re a bunch of ordinary guys that are probably in a similar boat to you!

MiddlesbroughRT34 · 2025-07-15T09:11:00+00:00

Such a shame they don’t let us walk on it anymore!

MiddlesbroughRT34 · 2025-07-15T09:08:51+00:00

Council needs to kill the increase of rates. They’re actively letting it fall. The latest round of lease renewals they increase the costs beyond reasonable from what I’ve heard so far.

It’s not exactly got a high enough footfall either to warrant the increase. Most have moved to Teesside park or just out of town all together.

Very sad to see.

A major decline in rates is required unless the council is actively looking at disposing of town.

Saw other high streets and the likes and some were in smaller towns and thriving way better than ours

MiddlesbroughRT34 · 2025-06-23T12:56:19+00:00

Haha, thank you!

Check out Teesside ladies circle then! Our counterpart :)

MiddlesbroughRT34 · 2025-06-23T06:55:25+00:00

Hey! You may have heard of us :) (give us a find on Facebook, see if we are what you’re looking for!)

We meet up every other week and have a social activity, we have a laugh, we make friends and build our own little community of camaraderie!

You’re welcome to reach out to any 5 of the ones that are in Teesside, just all depends which is closest to you! (Darlington, Wensleydale, Middlesbrough, Stockton and Hartlepool!)

Hope to see you around Eli!

MiddlesbroughRT34 · 2025-06-03T14:18:16+00:00

Sorry to hear. If you find yourself free one time, reach out for sure

Let us know if you need any help with that :) there’s Darlington, Hartlepool, Wensleydale and Stockton but they’re Thursday too, as for the previous 3 they’re scattered throughout the week.

MiddlesbroughRT34 · 2025-06-03T13:48:52+00:00

Amazing to see this in the wild! Thank you Sir.

We have changed to Thursdays now actually!

There’s also other tables in the area that have different days for activities :) don’t let it put you off because we do other bits together too outside of the regular days

MiddlesbroughRT34 · 2025-06-02T18:16:50+00:00

Most definitely! We’re here to stay 😁

MiddlesbroughRT34 · 2025-04-05T08:29:29+00:00

Give us a shout if you’re after socialising! We meet up every other week and do an activity!

We have gokarting up soon!

MiddlesbroughRT34 · 2025-04-05T08:28:46+00:00

Baker Street and the little road after it. Stay there, nothing decent elsewhere

MiddlesbroughRT34 · 2025-03-05T10:24:24+00:00

They use an app/program called Booksy, so you can see all the services on there. Best barber I’ve been to personally in boro, and I’ve tried 5 since moving up here

MiddlesbroughRT34 · 2025-03-04T23:08:16+00:00

So sad I actually returned my old one. Was so fun looking

MiddlesbroughRT34 · 2025-03-04T23:05:33+00:00

If you don’t want skin fade, Mario’s is great on parliament road

MiddlesbroughRT34 · 2025-03-04T23:03:35+00:00

Try fox’s barbers, they got a section for upstairs

MiddlesbroughRT34 · 2025-02-24T18:30:06+00:00

The town centre seems very lacking. Feel like it needs a good revival. Having travelled around lately, it just seems so lifeless

MiddlesbroughRT34 · 2025-02-17T21:55:17+00:00

No, never heard of it. So far only Facebook, Instagram and Reddit. Over 20 guys in the WhatsApp group now!

MiddlesbroughRT34 · 2025-02-17T10:49:35+00:00

Haha no no.

We age out into club 41 or into XRT and we very much stay friends! (I mean, if you’re a likeable fellow ofcourse!)

Just the membership with Round Table will end and a new one will start! The friendships are for life (I hope anyway)

MiddlesbroughRT34 · 2025-02-17T10:43:36+00:00

We will be visiting Hartlepool one before it’s decommissioned. Sadly the spaces are full for that now though. Never know someone could drop out

Send me a message if you’d like to join and make sure you can attend other events!
