Want to meet people and make friends? 
Come and join the Belonging Network!

We meet every second Thursday 2-3.30pm on Zoom.
People join in from all over Scotland. We spend a bit of time getting to know each other by doing ice-breakers and talking about what's new in our lives. We  have some discussions about friendship. We also have a fun quiz and talk about relaxation.

Here's a video we made for international friendship day where some of our members tell you about what we do at the meetings
