Hello All. I wonder if I might tell you about a Friendship Group Meeting for Widows/Widowers that we are planning to hold in Belfast on Saturday 14th September. This is simply a group for men and women who have lost their husband, wife or partner and would like to meet together with other people in the same position. We are "testing the waters" to see if people are interested or think there is a need for a group like this. If you would like more information, please check out the contact details on our website - www.wfni.co.uk, get in touch with us and we will provide further details. Thank you all, best wishes, Lorna xx

    Hi Lynn, There is a few of us meet up once a month on a Sunday and go out for Sunday lunch. We try to go to different places. I joined Way Up and that is how I got together with with other people from N Ireland. Way up is an internet group which you join  you can post things on their page and someone will get back to you. Most of the people are from the main land and they would have meetings over in the main land in different areas. Some of us from the group decided to organise a lunch here once a month. There usually about 8-10 of us who meet for lunch. I hope this is of some help to you you can always get in touch with me .
