Hi,
I was wondering if anyone in the Verwood/Ringwood area of Dorset could suggest or recommend any groups I could join to fill my day now that I find myself alone after a relationship breakdown, I’m reasonably mobile and can drive 20 or 30 mins from Verwood.
thanks in advance.
Regards
Nigel
Hi Nigel, Southampton General has a Maggies group for people with cancer.

It might be worthwhile reaching out to your GP to ask if they have Community Link Workers / Cancer Care-Coordinators to find out lists of groups in your area.

This link may help you:
As you are ex forces I don't know if you are aware of this:
Ringwood-armed-forces-veterans-breakfast-club.
I do hope the above helps.
Best wishes - Brian.

Hi Nigel Nige65 .
If you enjoy working with your hands or just want to meet up with other men then have a look at 'Men's sheds' and if you look online you will find out that they meet daily in your area. There have been some forum members who have sung their praises.
