Support Circle (Tuesday 04/02/20)

Afternoon lovely humans,

The next Support Circle will be on Tuesday February 4th, at the usual time of 7.55-9:30pm. :)

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

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.


If you sign up, do your best to be there from 8pm and then stay until closing, and make sure you don't use the other rooms. This is to make sure everyone makes the same commitment to the group and everyone feels listened to.

And if you can spare the time and headspace, please keep us posted about your experience here. It's hugely helpful for us in knowing how you all find Support Circle, and how your experience might change over time. :)
All behaviour is a need trying to be met.

    Sorry Natalie! We're unable to give passwords past about 6pm on the day, but glad to see you made it in anyway. As a rule it's good to make sure you get your sign up as far in advance as possible. :)

    Really sorry about this Diamond, we must have misread our list yesterday. We can guarantee you a spot for this coming Circle (the 11th). We'll drop you a PM. :)
