Sarah,
Welcome to the group.
True and fair observation of the calendar's contents: The Nottingham games are indeed full and tend to be high-level.
However, there is something that is not on the calendar: The Pathfinder Society games that are run at Vague Connections on Saturdays. I never know which Saturdays exactly, but I think it is fortnightly.
Note: I consider D&D 3rd Edition to have been the best so far, it has been revised to 3.5 and Pathfinder RPG is, to me and to many, technically a revision of the "revised" edition that 3.5 was. So in other words D&D is Pathfinder RPG and reciprocally. You, and others, are free to disagree with this statement.
The Pathfinder Society scenarios are very short adventures, usually for low-level characters, thus represent a very good way of learning the game. Drop by the shop and ask about it.
The only negative here is that the "mature players" are those who are playing the (full) games during the week, you may find younger people on Saturdays.
I own the Pathfinder beginner box, but have never really had the time to play with it. It is a very nice product and is sold at Vague Connections of course.
The weekly board-game sessions at Vague Connections are always open to new blood by the way.

The shop is there on Bing Maps.
