Happy Halloween from Herd the Nerds!

On Thursday we had our first event in our new venue, with a Halloween spin.

It was our busiest night yet since starting the club and it was amazing to see so many familiar faces as well as plenty of new! We still can't believe how far we've come. Thank you to all that came and supported as always, we wouldn't be where we are without you.

We hope you have a wonderful Halloween weekend, and we can't wait to see everyone at the next one!

We still have one spot available for our D&D Beginners Table tomorrow!

If you've ever wanted to give Dungeons and Dragons a go, why not now?

Thursday 29th October, 7:00pm–11:00pm.

Thurlow Village Hall, 114, B1061, Haverhill, United Kingdom, CB9 7LA

We hope you’re as excited as we are for Thursday! Who would have thought that in less than six months, we’d have grown enough to move to a larger venue? We’re incredibly grateful for the enthusiasm and support you continue to show Herd the Nerds!

With our new home, we won't be unlocking the doors until 7. As a result we just ask that everyone arrives at the advertised start time, rather than early, to give the committee time to get everything set up and ready for the evening.

Thanks for your understanding and for being such a fantastic community. We can’t wait to see you all on Thursday!

Something spooky this way comes…

With our next club night happening just in time for not only Halloween but also for half-term week, we have some special plans lined up for our first session in our new venue, Thurlow Village Hall, 114, B1061, Haverhill, United Kingdom, CB9 7LA on Thursday 29th October at our usual kick off time of 7pm.

We have not 1, not 2, but 3 beginners tables lined up. We have a beginners D&D table ready to start its first adventure, and two Warhammer tables prepped for battle.

D&D BEGINNERS - 1 SLOT AVAILABLE.

WARHAMMER BEGINNERS - all slots have now been filled

Admission is £5 per person playing, payable on the night.

If you’re interested in learning how to play either D&D or Warhammer, please message us as soon as possible to reserve your space. The slots for these tables are offered on a first come, first serve basis.

And with it being our spooky session, dressing up isn’t mandatory, but is definitely recommended!

Another brilliant night with the Herd!

We loved seeing new faces come along, watching some fantastic and interesting D&D stories unravel, and seeing plenty of Warhammer action across the tables too.

There is always something happening, whether it's rolling dice, painting minis, embarking on an adventure or just connecting with like-minded nerds!

A huge thank you to everyone that came and made it such a great night as always. We can't wait to do it all again!

Their fantastic terrain designs and attention to detail bring real character to the tabletop, and we’re proud to have the support of businesses producing such quality products within the hobby community.

Support like this means a lot to us and helps us continue building something special for our members.
