Never been to one of our meet-ups before? Been a member for a while or just joined? Either way this is the social for you! Once a month we hold a special meet-up to welcome in new members. Regulars are encouraged to attend and help new members have a fun night out! Our monthly “newbie” social is an opportunity to learn about our groups, events held and resources to help members. More importantly it is an opportunity to meet others going through separation & divorce in a safe and friendly environment. We can all learn from each other, but the primary aim of the socials is to enjoy ourselves! Our socials are hosted by members of the Divorce Support & Social Group and the Melbourne Divorce Support Group. We pay for own food and drinks individually. On Wednesday nights the Royal Melbourne has $20 pizza and pasta specials. Great food and great company. We hope to see you!

**We’re really excited about this one!** Following the success of our first community dinner, Chris (from 100 Coffee Movement) and I are hosting a second. This is a simple, warm space to share a meal, have good conversations and meet new people. We’ll also have a few light, fun activities to help you mingle naturally (nothing forced, don’t worry). The cost for this event is **$5** per person, which will cover the food and venue fees. No profits are made here; everything goes straight into making the community event happen. We’re capping this at 60 people so get in early. Payment can be made via PayID to: 0448 474 277 (Arjun Bhugra) **Payment confirms your spot.** Really looking forward to seeing you there. These spaces are only as special as the people in them, and it’s been amazing so far. Thanks again for supporting our community. _________________________________________________ Refunds: We prepare the meals based on the number of people attending, so unfortunately refunds aren’t available. If you can’t make it, feel free to pass your spot on to a friend :))
