From Thursday 29 January, Quiet Connections will be hosting a new weekly Meet Up in Wadebridge. The Meet Up will take place every Thursday from 11am to 1pm at the Wadebridge Family Hub. This space has been created…
Sitting quietly alongside someone else can feel surprisingly comforting. You don’t need to talk or do anything special. Just sharing the same space, each person in their own little world, can bring a sense of ease. For those of us who are naturally quieter, this kind of togetherness often feels more genuine than busy socialising….
What is a Quieteer? There’s no one way to be quiet. No single story that fits us all. We’ve come to know and love a wide and wonderful range of people who feel most at home in the calm, the thoughtful, and the slow. People who care deeply, notice quietly, and move through the world…
In every space we create at Quiet Connections – in a room together, online, or in moments shared in passing – we’re making a quiet promise to one another. A promise that says: you are seen, you are respected, you belong here. Each of us arrives with a different story, a different way of being….
There’s a phrase you may have come across before: “Choose your hard.” The idea is that life presents us with challenges no matter what path we take. Engaging in personal growth—whether through therapy, counselling, coaching, or deep self-reflection—is hard. But not engaging in it is also hard, just in a different way. For those of…
If you’ve found comfort, connection or confidence through Quiet Connections, then you already know the quiet power of being seen and accepted as you are. At Quiet Connections, we believe in the power of gentleness and showing up just as we are. We’re a small but deeply rooted community in Cornwall, creating calm, inclusive spaces…
Quiet Connections is delighted to announce the launch of its new Weekly Meet Ups in Newquay, providing a gentle and welcoming space for quieter individuals to connect in a way that feels authentic and pressure-free. Starting Tuesday, 25th March, the Meet Ups will take place every week from 2:30pm to 4:30pm at The Hub, Nansledan….
We know that many of you wonder why our Meet Ups aren’t available in every corner of Cornwall–and even the Country–and why we sometimes can’t secure the local venues you know and love that seem ideal. These questions matter, and we want to be open about the challenges we face and how you can help…
For many of us, finding a space where we can truly be ourselves is a challenge. The world can feel overwhelming, especially when we don’t seem to fit the mould of what might be considered ‘normal’. At Quiet Connections, we’re dedicated to creating safe spaces where all quieter individuals feel a sense of belonging and…

You might have heard of Quiet Connections and assumed we’re a support group. It’s an easy mistake to make, especially when we talk about creating spaces where quiet people—those of us who feel shy, introverted, highly sensitive, or experience social anxiety—can connect and grow. While we do support one another in many ways, it’s important…
