Where will it be? We’ll be heading to the Grain Barge in Mardyke Wharf (BS8 4RU). The Grain Barge prioritises locally-sourcing produce and supporting independent businesses!

What do I get for my ticket price? The price of your ticket includes a two-course Winter meal, for which you can choose between steak/salmon/lentil loaf as your main, served with eight different sides (all sides are GF and VGN friendly!). You’ll also get a choice of dessert, and the opportunity to soak up the festive atmosphere on a floating restaurant.

Feeling inspired by Strictly?

Want to try something new, or just get away from the desk and get your body moving?

Join us to give dance from the 20s,30s,40s and 50s a go, with the help of a profressional dancer and teacher!

We'll be getting a taste of moves from the Lindy-hop, the Charleston, the American smooth and Jazz-style dance.
Completely FREE for anyone to attend, suitable for all abilities!

Please note: registration for this event closes on Wednesday the 12th of November, as we need to ensure we have enough people to run the session a couple of days in advance :-)

Sign-up on our webpage today!

Although we're on our own schedule a bit in PGR-land, the 2025/26 academic year has officially started, which means society sign-ups are now open! ✨
‼️IMPORTANT‼️
Don't forget to re-join if you have been a member in the past, as memberships run annually. HOWEVER, as we've only just re-started, this year only we've agreed a special deal with the SU, and are able to offer those who signed-up last year a discounted membership price to re-join! Please take advantage of this as DocSoc needs your support! We have some really exciting things planned too 💖
