How can I make friends in Southampton?

Looking for ways to make friends in Southampton please! I’ve lived here for several years, but various friends have moved away over the years and I find myself with very few strong connections.

I’m 27 and work full time, so ideally would like to find a way to socialise on evenings or weekends.

I’m confident with people I know, but quite awkward if I don’t haha. However, I do appreciate I’ll probably need to get outside of my comfort zone if I want to make friends.

Thanks in advance!
