BS3 Connect
BS3 Connect is a relaxed, no-pressure community drop-in for anyone who’d like a low-key place to be around other people for a couple of hours. It is a simple “third space”; somewhere that isn’t home or work, where people can spend time, feel welcome, and maybe make a few new connections.
There’s no agenda, no forced introductions, no need to be “good” at anything, and no expectation to stay the whole time. Come on your own, come with a friend, bring something to do, or just turn up and see how you feel. Loneliness and disconnection are things lots of people are feeling, and sometimes what helps most is just having somewhere easy and informal to go.
You might:
* Chat with others
* Read quietly
* Bring a craft project
* Draw or sketch
* Work on a jigsaw puzzle
* Play board games or card games
* Bring a notebook or journal
* Work on a small creative project
* Bring a miniature model kit
* Do colouring, collage or zines
* Or just hang out with a tea/coffee and do nothing much at all!Suggested £3 donation to cover the cost of the facilities.
