What are Good to Know Groups?
We run Good to Know Groups as part of our Telephone Groups. These one-off events offer social and learning opportunities to people who may not be online or who may struggle to get out and about into their communities. They also connect older people with their peers and partner organisations, to hear and talk about issues that matter to them.
Think of these groups like a cup of tea and a chat at a community centre, but over the phone in the comfort of your living room. Our current programme of regular Good to Know Groups is now open for new people to join. See the programme of upcoming talks.
What happens at a Good to Know Group?
Good to Know Groups take place most weeks and last around an hour. At each group we invite a different guest speaker to come and tell us a bit about their organisation and an issue or topic that matters to them. There’s always a chance to learn something new, to ask questions and to hear about other people’s experiences.
