A growing number of Classical Partners' members join from outside the UK particularly those living in Europe and North America. Some of them are seeking a permanent relationship and others have come to value the unique ready-made social facility we can offer with our programme of musically centred, cultural events. For people who visit the UK regularly on business or pleasure, the CP Overseas Social Membership facility is an especially attractive option. Both the overseas full and social membership options are available to unattached men and women interested in meeting suitable people for the purpose of friendship or marriage.

When you join as an Overseas Full Member you are entitled to all the benefits of UK-based members. You will receive our diary and invitations to our events as outlined above, plus introductions. These can all be sent to your home address at regular intervals. The main consideration is that we need sufficient prior notice to ensure that all arrangements coincide with your UK visits. Another point worth noting is that in certain cases we are able to adjust the length of time your membership fee will cover in the light of the frequency of your visits.

If your visits to the UK are not long enough to benefit from individual introductions we would be able to offer you are Overseas Social Membership. This is of particular interest to single men and women who visit the UK for short periods on a regular basis, perhaps in connection with their business or profession, and would appreciate the benefits of an attractive ready-made social milieu which reflects their interest in music. The package entitles you to receive our regular diary of events and personal invitations, but excludes our introduction service.

A Case in Point:

Larry (real name withheld) is 36 years old and lives on Los Angeles. He works for an international executive recruitment agency which requires him to be in London every three weeks on average.

"Because I enjoy classical music I was attracted to Classical Partner's programme of musical evenings. Spending time in a foreign city can be a pretty lonesome business and the Overseas Social membership offered the kind of facility I needed in my situation.

The kind of people I meet at Classical Partner events are proving to be a very welcome enhancement to my social life over here: that's in addition to the generally excellent musical fare on offer."
