Enjoy using your imagination, going on adventures, and telling stories with our weekly Dungeons & Dragons Beginners Club. Designed specifically for those new to the game, this welcoming group provides the perfect introduction to the exciting world of tabletop roleplaying.
Together, you will learn how to create characters, solve problems, work as a team, and tell incredible stories through collaborative play. Guided by Freddie, our experienced Dungeon Master, you will embark on epic quests, encounter mysterious creatures, uncover hidden secrets, and shape the outcome of the adventure through your own decisions.
No previous experience is needed. Along the way, players will gradually learn the rules of the game while developing valuable skills such as creativity, communication, problem-solving, teamwork, and confidence. The first session you will learn how to create your own character before starting to play.
Dungeons & Dragons is much more than a game – it is a chance to explore new worlds, think imaginatively, and become the hero of your own story. Whether you’re a brave warrior, a clever wizard, or a curious explorer, your quest begins here.
You don’t need to bring anything with you, everything is provided.
The game is most enjoyable when you can attend every session, but we understand that sometimes you may be unable to make one. If you can’t attend a session, please let us know in advance.

We believe creativity should be accessible to everyone. If you feel your child would benefit from one of our workshops but financial circumstances make this difficult, please get in touch with us in confidence. Through our Pay It Forward scheme, we may be able to offer supported places, and we would hate for anyone to miss out on the benefits of creativity due to cost. Equally, if you are in a position to contribute towards our Pay It Forward scheme and help another child access our workshops, we would love to hear from you.
