Connect Events

As well as giving you access to a hive mind of resources, Connect is also a social space – a friendly and safe place to come together with other members where you can be yourself, be heard, and have fun!

We have lots of regular online meet-ups that all members are welcome to join – a highlight is the weekly Tuesday Meet-Up, where you can chat with other Connect members from around the UK, play games, and have a good laugh! We also run crafting sessions, cooking events, movie nights, and more.

Plus, if you’re aged 18 or over, you’ll have the opportunity to attend our in-person events, which include weekend get-aways and other exciting trips!

Whether you come to the virtual meet-ups every week, join the odd event from time-to-time, or just come along to observe and listen, we value everyone and aim to cater for all interests.

Got a special interest you’d like to share with others? Let us know and we’ll try to add a new event to the calendar – we believe in teamwork and co-creating with our members!

“My favourite thing is being part of the book club, attending online meetings with other people, and getting involved with activities.”
