Home Alone?

Here is a monthly opportunity for those living alone to share
the triumphs and challenges of life with a group of friendly

and have few chances to discuss day-to-day events, or
significant choices. Studies have shown the positive impact
that interpersonal relationships have on health and well-being.
Come and give us a try, for laughter, support and good
company.
