Together.
Painting on a Wednesday. A swim midweek. A walk that ends at a cafe. Our rolling calendar of trips, classes and groups is open to anyone in Selby — no referral, no pressure, no awkward forms before you’ve said hello.

Art class
Watercolours, sketching, the odd bit of clay. Bring nothing, take home something you made. Tea and biscuits land halfway through.
Swimming
Quiet lane, gentle pace, familiar faces. We meet at Selby Leisure Centre and head for coffee after for anyone who fancies it.
Nature walks
Selby Park, Brayton Barff, the Wolds when the weather plays. Easy pace, no leaving anyone behind, always a pub stop in mind.
Cooking together
One recipe, a few hands, everyone eats. Good for anyone cooking for one or just wanting to be useful in a kitchen again.
Walk & talk
Two miles, flat as a pancake, finishing at our favourite bench-and-bacon-butty stop. Lovely if Sundays are the hard day.
IN CASE YOU'RE WONDERING
The bit where most people say "... but".
I don't know anyone.
Nobody does, the first time. Someone will pour you a tea and introduce you. That’s the whole job.
I've never painted / cooked / swum.
Brilliant. Neither had half the room. Nobody’s marking it.
I can't make it every week.
Don’t. Come when you can. Skip when you can’t. We’ll still be here.
I'm not in a great place right now.
Come anyway. Sit at the back, watch, leave whenever. Showing up counts.
