New members are welcome to join us for a taster.

It’s not a psychology class—just real talk about what makes us tick.

Our group provides the opportunity to discuss, largely informally, various aspects of human behaviour - attempting to make more sense of life in general in today's uncertain and turbulent world. We have a friendly, sharing, non-threatening ethos.

As well as our open, member-led, discussions we are starting to feature a number of on-line talks by experts, using these to fuel discussion. Sometimes it is easier to disagree and argue against a declared expert when the speaker Is not in the room!!

Previous knowledge of psychology is not a requirement. New members are welcome.
