18-25 social groups

Thanks to funding from the National Lottery Community Fund, we are excited to be launching a new social group for young people aged 18-25 living across Maidstone, Ashford and Swale.

These new groups will meet informally four times a year and all activity costs will be fully covered. The sessions are a great way to meet new people, make friendships, try new things and reduce social isolation and anxiety. All the activities will be chosen by the group with an initial planning meeting to gather people’s ideas. Suggestions we have received so far include bowling, cinema trips and rock climbing. These new social groups will be launching in the Autumn with dates to be confirmed asap. Our Maidstone group will have it’s first meeting on Wednesday 9th October from 6pm to 7pm.

Our Wellbeing Coach will be on hand to facilitate all of the sessions and provide any additional mental health signposting and support that is required.
