Your voice matters to us. Our community is built on the shared strength of real experiences, and we believe that everyone’s story has the power to create change. Whether you're looking to share your journey, connect with others, or simply listen and learn, there’s a place for you with us. Join our community to find support and inspire hope - let’s build something powerful together. See below different ways to get involved.
Community Café
Join our Community Research Café which runs every Monday from 1–3pm at St Denys Community Hub, Walmgate, YO1 9QD. It's a welcoming, safe space to relax, enjoy some food, and connect with others who’ve experienced support services in York or who may feel on the margins.
If you want to, this is your chance to share your experiences and together, we’ll explore ideas and co-design ways to create real, meaningful change, or you can just sit and rest - everyone is welcome
Working Circles
You could be part of our Working Circles. Our Lived Experience Working Circles are safe, welcoming spaces where we come together to talk about real issues that matter in our lives. We choose a topic, share our experiences, and work together to understand what’s really going on.
Through simple, creative activities, guided by you, we explore what needs to change, and how we can help make it happen.
