Social Groups | Expressions of Interest

What Would You Love to Do With People Who Like It Too?

Gaming is one way people connect — but it is certainly not the only one. We would love to create more small, interest-based social groups where children and teenagers can spend time with people who enjoy some of the same things they do.

Rather than scheduling groups and hoping people appear, we want to hear what families are actually interested in. When enough people with compatible ages and interests express interest in the same activity, we can explore bringing a group together.

The interest comes first. The group grows from there.

Tell Us What You’re Interested In

LEGO Club — proposed social group

Expressions of Interest

LEGO Club

Build Something Together

For young people who enjoy LEGO, building, designing and creating. A LEGO-based group could provide a smaller, structured environment where participants build alongside one another, share ideas, collaborate when they want to and connect through a common interest.

Art Club — proposed social group

Expressions of Interest

Art Club

Create Alongside Others

For young people who enjoy drawing, painting, making and experimenting with creative materials. The focus would be on creating in a shared space rather than expecting conversation to happen on demand. Art itself provides something participants can share, notice, discuss — or simply enjoy alongside one another.

Mental Fitness — proposed social group

Expressions of Interest

Mental Fitness

Move, Play & Connect

A physical-activity based social group for young people who find connection easier when they are moving and doing something rather than sitting and talking. Activities could involve movement, games and collaborative physical challenges depending on the group. This is not therapy through exercise, and not a treatment for mental illness — it's an interest/activity-based social group that uses movement as the shared context.

Why EOI?

The Right Group Needs the Right People

A social group works best when there is enough common ground between participants. That includes more than simply reaching a minimum number. We also consider:

Age

Shared interests

Preferred activities

Group size

Support needs

Whether the proposed group environment is likely to feel comfortable for the people interested

Submitting an Expression of Interest does not commit you to attending and does not guarantee that a group will run. It simply tells us: “If you build this group, we’d like to hear about it.”

Register Your Interest

No commitment — this simply helps us understand which groups families would like us to create.
