Hey everyone, thanks so much for your feedback so far! It's helped us shape these exciting new topic-specific chat sessions launching every Thursday!

These sessions will focus on a specific topic each week, creating a safe space for open discussion and support.

Here are some of the topics we'll take a look at:
  • Stress management
  • Neurodiversity
  • Family relationships
  • Friendship
  • Anxiety and depression
  • Loneliness
  • Grief and loss
  • Gender & Identity
  • Money Management & Cost of Living

Plus, for August and September, we'll be taking a look at:
  • University worries
  • School

Our existing Sexual Violence Support Circle will still run once a month.

How it'll Work:
We'll start off by running these topics on a rotating schedule. We’re happy to be lead by you and adjust the topics based on what resonates most with you/ what is most popular!

We’d love to hear your thoughts!
This is your space so we are really open to feedback! Let us know what you think in the comments below:
What themes would you like to see covered?
Are any of the listed themes missing the mark or unnecessary?
Do you have any suggestions on how to make these sessions most helpful?

    Is this going to replace Support Chat on Thursdays or be an additional chat like Young Carers Chat? @ella
