Clubs & Groups
From Sunday bike rides and walking groups to choirs, book clubs and craft circles, Kent is full of friendly clubs that welcome new faces. Browse by activity or town, then get in touch with the group directly.
Running
A sociable, non-competitive running group that takes complete beginners through to 5K and beyond, with volunteer team leaders at every session. Runners start and finish together, so nobody gets left behind.
Volunteering
A volunteer group, founded in 2009, that looks after The Vines gardens in the heart of Rochester alongside Medway Council and Kent Wildlife Trust. Volunteers help with planting and run community events such as the summer Cherry Picnic and bat and bug days.
Games & Hobbies
The main chess club for the Medway towns, meeting weekly in Frindsbury and playing in the Kent county leagues. It is a good home for anyone wanting regular over-the-board games against friendly local opponents.
Arts & Crafts
A friendly art society, almost a century old, for local painters and art lovers, with monthly evening meetings and member exhibitions. All are welcome to come along, whether you paint yourself or just enjoy seeing what others create.
Music & Choirs
A long-established, friendly choir that sings everything from big choral works to traditional folk songs, with regular concerts in Rochester Cathedral. New singers are welcomed, and the society is inviting singers to join a Verdi Requiem performance in March 2027.
Books & Writing
A relaxed monthly reading group at Rochester Library, run by Medway Libraries for adults who enjoy talking about books. It is an easy way to discover new titles and meet fellow readers over a morning chat.

Add a GroupEvery club here is run independently by its organisers, not by InKent. We check details against each group's own website or page, but times and prices change, so contact the group before your first visit. For groups involving children, the organiser is responsible for safeguarding, so ask about it before you go.
