    A note for our regulars: we're going to start confirming places for Support Circle a little later than usual. For Tuesday sessions, confirmations will begin on Friday.

    This is to give everyone two full days to sign up before we start accepting people. That means it's not a race to sign up the fastest and everyone gets a fair shot. :)

    In the Support Circle, each member takes turns sharing their thoughts and feelings, while the rest of the group actively listens without judgment. This format ensures that each person has an opportunity to be heard and supported by the community.

    Hey everyone, we have 2 more places available for Support Circle on Tuesday 25th July :)
    Maybe somethings don't get better, but we do. We get stronger. We learn to live with our situations as messy and ugly as they are. We fix what we can and we adapt to what we can't. Maybe some of us will never fully be okay, but at least we're here. We're still trying. We're doing the best we can. That's worth celebrating too ❤

    One support space left for this - don't let it go to waste! Sign up if you'd like to. :)

    Listeners also welcome, the more the merrier.
