I'd love to share the story of my very first time attending a circleup. It was a cold Saturday in January, during a period in my life when I really wanted to open up to new people and step outside my comfort zone. So, I decided to sign up and give it a try, althought I was hesitant and unsure of what to expect. However, when I arrived, I was warmly welcomed by Lydia, who introduced me to everyone. I felt quickly included and at ease. The other girls were incredibly kind and welcoming as well, and it’s been a pleasure to see them at other events.

So, if you’re looking to take a step out of your comfort zone in a friendly, easygoing environment, I think Circle Up is a great place to start. It’s even helped boost my confidence 😃

It's really helped me to connect with people in and around Bristol and has given me the opportunity to see that I can make different social circles despite living outside of Bristol

Was a brilliant way of finding new friends after my mates from uni left the area. Finally felt like I had a proper social life again.
