Tea ‘n’ Talk groups are for anyone to pull up a seat, with a drink and have a natter with others.

Who can attend?

Anyone! Whether you are on your own, with a friend, with a person you care for, a parent with a baby/ young child, young or older – all are welcome.

Do I need to book before I attend?

No, you do not need to book, just come along – look for the Tea ‘n’ Talk table signs and pull up a seat.

Which group should I attend?

We have lots of groups all over Bradford District and Craven based in community cafes and venues. Some of our groups are specific are for men or women, other groups have volunteers there who can speak Punjabi and Urdu. We also have groups designated as LGBTQ+ and Dementia friendly locations. If you’re not sure which group is right for you, please contact us by email on communitycompanions@mindinbradford.org.uk
