Build Social Connection
Welcome to the Tweaks Living Room - the place where we build friendships, community and social support. Everyone needs a support network but many of us feel isolated or lonely. Here at Tweaks we recognise the power of social connection but also how difficult it can be to build it.
Whether you're dealing with chronic illness, low energy, anxiety , neurodiversity or just a packed life, making or maintaining social bonds can feel like one more thing on a long to-do list. But we're not here to guilt you into joining a book club or calling your cousin. We're here to help you notice what feels good for you, what gives you energy, and how small steps and tiny tweaks can open doors to feeling more connected.
Social connection doesn't have to mean being the life of the party. It might be a kind word from a neighbour, a shared laugh online, or even feeling seen by someone who gets what you're going through.
Research shows that even light connections - a chat at the Post Office, a wave to a familiar face - can lift your mood and help you feel part of something bigger than yourself.
In this room, we explore tiny tweaks that make connection easier. We celebrate different ways of belonging - from deep friendships to quiet companionships, support groups, volunteering, gaming communities or shared interests.
There's no one size fits all. If you've ever felt lonely in a crowd or exhausted by constant socialising , you're not alone. let's re-imagine connection in a way that fits your life, your energy, and your needs.
