Support Circle (Tuesday 11th, 7:55-9:30pm)

JustVJustV Community Manager Posts: 5,525 Part of The Furniture
The next support circle will be on 11th August, 7:55pm till 9:30pm.

What is Support Circle?
Support Circle follows the same basic structure as a Support Chat - opening round, support time, and closing round. The unique thing about Support Circle is that everyone gets their own time to chat and be heard by the group, and have their chance to listen and support others. It's sign-up based so the group is relatively small, and you can sign-up to get support or to support others.

It's a great space for people who find it difficult to get their voices heard in regular support chat and/or are keen to listen and support others in a more structured environment. We have places for people who want to come and get support or attend as listeners

Try your best to stay for the whole session if you sign up to come. That just makes sure nobody feels left out at the end when other people have left and it's their turn to share. Similarly, it's important to stick to Support Circle if you do sign up and not go into other rooms.

Both of these things help make sure everyone feels equally listened to in the group. :)

You can sign-up using this form, and give us any feedback you have here.

Any questions, drop them below. :star:
All behaviour is a need trying to be met.

    Also just to say, this one is looking fairly full on reserved support places from the last session. Tonnes of space for listeners but just a heads up that if you'd like a support place, it might be tight this week!

    If you have one reserved and they have said that it is on the 11th then yes, I assume you have a spot. <3@Past User

    They will PM on the day with the password if you have been told you have a reserved space.

    @Past User The form says any sign-ups after 4pm will be carried over to the next chat so you may be out of luck
