Gerald has created an evening for people who'd like to meet others in a relaxed, welcoming environment and enjoy some meaningful connection.

In Gerald's words:

"Hey you, it's time to connect!

If you have been looking to make new friends, find like minded people, for ways to deepen your relationships or just get your social connection needs met then this event is for you!

This night will be a guided connection event, facilitated by me but led by "you". The night will flow with light connection exercises and games, to oil and loosen up our social skills. This is open for the socially awkward to the most social butterflies out there, no experience needed."
