People’s paths criss-cross each other in no particular places. That is reality. It’s when first step compassion can be shown. The next step may sometimes be spending a little longer working through concerns or needs which can be done at one of the planned regular Talking Cafes/places
Talking Places are pop-ups in existing cafes. A more comfortable environment better equipped to talk things over and to make contact with services/activities that might help help people move forward.
A Talking Cafe ids also a meeting place for Connectors and others to talk over issues, share thinking and develop ideas to enhance community in practical, compassionate ways.
Talking Places are not clubs to attend permanently but will be there for people when needed, particularly during a period of adjustment. They will need volunteer hosts who may or may not be Community Connectors themselves.
