Making new friends.

By (user no longer on site) OP over a year ago

So a lot of you know iv recently moved to London from Southampton.

I'm really wanting to make new friends but don't really have any hobbies and I mostly will be working from home so I'm finding it really difficult.

Any suggestions?

Go to a yoga class! They're really friendly.

Pick up a hobby, or get involved in a community or voluntary group

Ah! Working from hone makes it tricky.

I think maybe some fitness classes or see if there’s a local walking group or something?

You can also use Bumble to look for friends!

Maldon and Peterborough

Many areas have community centres. Have a nosey at what's local.

There are some good suggestions here.

I don't have children either so I can't join parents groups, it seems to be yummy mummy Central here.

What interests do you have?

I Joined the local ladies choir just to get out of the house and socialise. I loved it, being the youngest member it was like having lots of Mummas and Grandmas looking after me.

Covid put the lid on it and it doesn't suit the hours I work now

Maybe look for something like that

I met friends through volunteering. Pick something you care about and find an organisation that needs your help.
