FAST FRIENDS
A spontaneous social circle for men to meet face-to-face and make new friends without “screens”!
“FAST FRIENDS” is a social group activity that aims to fight social isolation in the community through sparking firm human connections and friendships. This periodic activity will help you break the “I.C.E” – Introductions. Conversations. Evolutions – and engage in fun interactive discussions in an inclusive and comfortable environment.
So, come join the circles of FAST FRIENDS!
WHEN & WHERE:
The next FAST FRIENDS activity will be confirmed soon. Keep an eye on our calendar of events to find out more.
COST:
Free, or by donation.
ACTIVITY FORMAT:
This is a guided activity and a facilitator will help you navigate the experience. You will have the opportunity to participate in different engaging rounds where you’ll get to meet and create meaningful connections with different people. You will also be provided with some personal space to reflect and take time for yourself in between activity rounds.
The group activities are designed and facilitated by Ken Godmere
