Grow Bigger Lives are an inclusive peer support network for all adults - boosting confidence around social opportunities and trying new things, looking at what gets in the way of good social lives, making connections, etc? For some it is finding someone with similar interests, it can also be confidence, money, transport, disability, support costs. Or having people you identify with and trust.  We all recognise that small and local connections are usually best. We don’t want to get in the way, but find ways to add to your existing network of people, knowledge, skills and experience.​  Growing Bigger Lives is a space to make practical next steps to grow a bigger life with support from others.
