Chatting or having a conversation with someone is one of the best ways to look after our mental health.

Having a chat about any worries you may have as well as talking about the things you enjoy doing whether playing video games, movies, sport or hobbies helps us to feel connected.

Whilst at home each week volunteers and staff catch up with young people. It’s a highlight of the week for our team - to catch up with everyone.

Robert and Stephen had another video call at the weekend with Gary and Conor this is what they chatted about..

“We really had a nice catch up and talked about how we where social distance exercising and how much we missed our daily routines.

“We all agreed that we missed the football and how it wasn’t the same, interestingly we talked about the movie and series choices that we have been watching to try and pass the time, the boys nights was another topic, about how we all missed them and we can wait for them to resume once normality kicks in again, and of course we all had good banter as we always do.”

Sounds like it was time well spent!
