Conquering Loneliness by Bringing People Together one Table at a Time!
Here are some comments from those who have already joined their local Talkin' Table.
I can't recommend Talkin' Tables enough.
It's like 1 big happy family and has definitely helped build up my confidence. So thank you to all you lovely people it means a lot to be part of something so
special xx
After losing my husband and moving to
a new area, I felt depressed and lonely.
Talkin' Tables has changed all that and I now have amazing friends and go out and do things.
We are there for each other at any time.
It's brilliant!
After retiring and then having a serious
illness, my confidence was shattered.
I felt like I didn't matter anymore. Joining Talkin' Tables has given me some fabulous new friends. I now go on trips shopping, cinema lunch etc. It has been a lifeline for me and everyone else who has joined. What a marvellous idea this is.
I knew no one here and thought
my life here was going to be lonely then I joined Talkin' Tables and it certainly turned my life around. I have
met absolutely lovely ladies and gents. My life is far from lonely and I have made friends with some amazing people.

At Talkin’ Tables, we work with awesome local businesses to create facilitated inclusive spaces that allow people to meet & connect with others in their community.
How Talkin' Tables Works
Each of the businesses we partner with hosts their Talkin’ Table for one hour at a time. The tables are free for anyone to join, and a table leader is present for the hour to welcome people to the table and act as a point of contact for the charity.
The “Talkin’ Tables” are the ones marked with the small sign inviting you to sit and join in.
This is a safe, inclusive space so pull up a chair and enjoy the company of others.
Remember to always be kind and respectful
