Picked by people, never bought
Who writes the one-line notes and the picks, how we choose, and why money never buys a place or a pick on hampshire.events.
Who writes it
A small team at Hampshire Events, named here by what they do.
- The people who check
- Each week they match every listing against the organiser’s own page, and write the one-line note on each event.
- The owners
- Agree each week’s picks and sign off this page. Names appear here if they choose.
Picks and notes
Every event carries one line from us. Up to two a week are our pick.
The first notes are being written
Each note is checked against the listing before it goes up, so none is shown here until one is.
A note is
- Who the event suits, in our own words.
- What the room is like: its size, its feel, what to bring.
- Written from the organiser’s page and what we know of the event.
A note is not
- A review or a score.
- Written, edited or paid for by the organiser.
- A ranking. Lists run by date, never by how good we think an event is.
How a pick is chosen
- 1Open to newcomersOpen to all, or a guest is welcome. Never invite only.
- 2Checked this weekDate, time, venue and booking link matched against the organiser’s page.
- 3Worth the morningSomething a person new to the county would be glad they went to.
Money never buys a place.
Every event is listed by date and checked the same way, whoever runs it. If anything is ever sponsored, it will say Sponsored in words, beside the thing itself, and it will never be a pick.

- Money never buysA pick
- Money never buysA kinder note
When we get it wrong
We fix the listing, say on the event what changed and when. How we check explains how corrections work.
The week ahead, every Monday.
Every event in the county for the next seven days, posted first thing on Monday on LinkedIn and Facebook.
