You asked — we listened, and now we're creating!
Starting on Friday 8th August, we’re launching Beanbag Banter: a once-a-month Friday session designed especially for adults and older teens who are craving deeper connection and meaningful friendships with like-minded people.
We heard you when you said you wanted more opportunities to meet others who share your passions — a space where you don’t have to mask, explain, or keep it surface-level.
These sessions are all about going deep on your favourite topics, diving into special interests, and having real, rich conversations (with a bit of friendly banter and debate thrown in too!).
Led by Cat, who is amazing at guiding robust, thoughtful discussions and creating a safe, welcoming space for everyone to share and connect. Because let's face it — we autistic folks love detail, depth, and conversations that actually mean something to us!
Just grab a beanbag, a weighted blanket, a plushie — and settle in for an evening of real connection and authentic sharing.
Have a special interest or topic you're passionate about? Drop it in the comments below!
Or, if you’re up for any deep conversation (as long as it isn’t small talk!), simply let us know you are in regardless!
Let’s ditch the small talk and connect in the ways that truly matter by registering your interest here:
