As Friends it is important for us to keep in touch. We are offering a coffee morning and an afternoon natter via zoom. If you want to join us just press on the button below and it will take you to our meeting place. Remember and bring your cuppa.
What you need first
If you don’t already use zoom on your computer, phone or tablet then when you press on the button for the morning or afternoon get together you will be asked to join zoom. This is easy! All you need to do is follow the instructions that will come up on your screen.

Online Classes From Our Partners
In Partnership with the Whiteinch Centre
In response to the request from ‘The Friends’ membership for online classes, we have managed to connect with another local charity. The Whiteinch Centre currently run online classes and have kindly agreed to open up access to the Friends. This will obviously save us duplicating our efforts and allow the Friends to deliver other classes where we will be able to reciprocate this kind gesture. The classes are free and if you would like to attend any of them, then please see details below. Why don’t you let us know how you get on by writing a blog on the website. It might just help other Friends take the steps to get more involved. We would like to thank The Whiteinch Centre for this wonderful community spirit and willingness to work in partnership with the Friends.
If you are a charity or other organisation, and you have an idea around how you could work in partnership with The Friends, you can contact us here

Manifesting Your Best Future Self
Visit the website. There are a few free resources on the website for you to have a look at. They might just support you to manage the current situation with covid.
It’s easy to feel daunted by life circumstances such as the COVID-19 pandemic, and by the personal, professional, and financial challenges that are arising from it. Unhealthy levels of stress have become widespread, resulting in physical and emotional health problems such as impaired immunity, weight problems, migraines, insomnia, hypertension, anxiety, irritability, and low mood.
This book introduces a highly effective approach that helps you trade tension, fear, anxiety, anger, and sadness for love, appreciation, gratitude, and enthusiasm, even under pressure.
