Join us for our chilled Sunday afternoon Meetup, for connection and sanctuary amongst others who get you. We don't have a theme for this Meetup but please bring any topics you'd like to discuss and we'll also have the conversation cards with us. We'll meet at the Southbank Balcony Bar on the 5th Floor of Royal Festival Hall. The easiest way to find us is to enter through the main entrance and take the lift to the fifth floor - we'll try to sit at that end on a big table & will have a Meetup sign on display. We'll also comment on the day. There is an entrance to Royal Festival Hall that is quite close to the Nelson Mandela (INFJ) statue and there is also an entrance to the ground floor around the corner. Lifts are at either end of the building. You can buy either alcoholic or soft drinks, or tea/coffee at the bar. This venue is usually quieter than Picturehouse, apart from short intermissions when people sometimes come out for 20/30 mins, if there is some kind of performance. There appears to be a classical music concert on at 3pm that day. Please note you don't have to be well-versed on Myers-Briggs Type Indicator to attend; we are merely looking to build a community of like-minded people for fun, support and connection. There are always some people who don't come on the day, so if you're top of the waitlist, it's very likely you'll be bumped up, so please come anyway and equally if you would really like to come, please do. We're not going to turn you away! If there's a lot of attendees, we'll split into 2 groups.

This is a simple, low-pressure walk in Greenwich Park. KindSteps walks are about reducing loneliness, creating a safe space, and connecting naturally — without pressure to talk or share.
