Empty Chairs - Sit down and talk to someone

I came across this today and thought it might be of interest to some of our members.
This was on the BBC website

How empty chairs are helping people’s mental health - BBC News

I have seen many posts on here about being lonely, needing someone to talk to etc.
If you are able to get out, and you can find an event near you then this might help you.

“It’s just a friendly table where you can sit down and talk to someone. Come for five minutes, stay for an hour, or head off whenever you’re ready.”

Please see the below link for more information.

Please note, I have myself not attended and don’t speak from personal experience, but I feel it may be interest to members. Indeed, I am interested myself.

It’s a brilliant concept, so simple. All it takes is one person to take the initiative and so many others benefit from that.
