The impact we madeRuth (85) and Alvaro (31) met early this year and hit it off immediately.
Most of us are more encouraged to try something new when we’ve been recommended by a friend, so we want to ask you to mention us to your mates!
The main aim of all our programmes to to spark conversation, stories and connections through shared experiences.
Some may say the bigger the city, the lonelier we may feel. We have all experienced these feelings at some point over the last two years. Sadly those in our communities who were already isolated before the pandemic have felt lonelier than ever which is why the work we do is more important than ever.
We make many friendship matches each year, but this follows the story of just one the special connections that have been made in 2022.
Our 12th Birthday party was amazing!
