So true...

Its been a busy last 15th months in the TalkingPoint story- seeing the 4th, 5th and 6th semicolon bences being installed at Portishead, Bristol and Wrexham respectively.
These are benches not just to be a place to chat and reflect, but also to be a visual prompt and reminder to:
> reach out for support
> check-in on loved ones
> be aware of those around us and say hi to passers by
> generally stay connected

We'll never know which are the conversations that help someone make it through today into tomorrow.
At this time of year in particular many struggle. The expectations to be having a great Christmas and the pressures of social media can be overwhelming.
Let's all do what we can to make this a great Christmas for everyone.
STAY CONNECTED

We're so pleased to see the first TalkingPoint Bench installed in Wales, With Simon O'Rourke - Tree Carving crafting and carving. It is amazing to see his vision at work to fashion a semi colon from such an obscurely shaped piece of wood!
We hope the bench promotes and provokes many a conversation to keep people connected- and help someone struggling through one day to the next.
Its great to see so many coming together as part of the Baton of Hope - Wrexham leg and the wider tour.
We're so proud to have an idea born in Clevedon, North Somerset to be spiralling out and involving such great groups, organisations and individuals.
We'll be up to visit it when we can!
