About Odd Fellows Friendship Month in the United Kingdom
Ends: Sep 30, 2025
DESCRIPTION:
ODD FELLOWS FRIENDSHIP MONTH: CELEBRATING COMMUNITY AND CONNECTION
Odd Fellows Friendship Month is an initiative to foster community spirit and encourage new friendships. The Odd Fellows, one of the largest and oldest friendly societies, organize the campaign, dedicated to promoting friendship, benevolence, and social support.
THE HISTORY OF ODD FELLOWS FRIENDSHIP MONTH
Odd Fellows Friendship Month was launched in 2010 to highlight the importance of social connections and to address issues of loneliness and social isolation. The month-long event features a variety of activities and events designed to bring people together, create lasting friendships, and showcase the benefits of being part of a supportive community. Over the years, it has grown in popularity, with increasing numbers of local branches participating and expanding their outreach efforts.
WHAT IS AN ODD FELLOW
An Odd Fellow is a member of the Odd Fellows, formally known as the Independent Order of Odd Fellows Manchester Unity Friendly Society. Founded in the 18th century, the Odd Fellows originated as a mutual aid society, providing financial and social support to its members. The name "Odd Fellows" reflects the society's historical roots, when it was unusual or "odd" for people from different trades and walks of life to come together for mutual benefit. Today, the Odd Fellows continue to uphold their principles of friendship, love, and truth, offering their members social activities, support services, and charitable initiatives.
HOW TO PARTICIPATE IN ODD FELLOWS FRIENDSHIP MONTH
Attend Events—Local Odd Fellows branches host events throughout September, including coffee mornings, social gatherings, and educational workshops. These events are open to members and non-members and provide opportunities to meet new people and learn about the society.
Join a Branch—Consider becoming a member of the Odd Fellows to enjoy the full range of social activities, support services, and community initiatives offered year-round.
