SoCom

Social and Communication Support Group

  • Do social norms confuse you?
  • Do you sometimes speak bluntly, or act without thinking, then spend forever trying to resolve the consequences?
  • Do you struggle to understand small-talk or jokes?
  • Do crowded places fill you with dread?
  • Do you feel lonely, isolated or unsupported?
  • Are you chaotic and disorganised and feeling stressed?

SoCom offers ideas and activities which are aimed at encouraging a greater self-esteem, and the ability to understand and cope with issues related to social and communication difficulties, with potential for a new friend group and support network to develop. Participation in any activity is optional.

Session Themes

  • Organisation and routine. 
  • Processing the world.
  • Relationships and communication. 
  • Targeting assignments. 
  • Conflict resolution and psychology. 
  • Employability and change.

A library of resources will be available throughout the year for you to access even if you don’t attend the group sessions.
