Relationship Circle

Relationship Circle is a Community Interest Company (CIC) organisation with the aim of bringing women together to learn how to support each other during challenging times when they experience relationship problems/crisis with partners/spouses or family members at home.

This group will offer individuals a safe space to share feelings and experience with one another via attending a virtual cafe or online free confidential individual tearoom conversations with the Relationship Circle mentor for up to 30 minutes for a series of 6 sessions on a weekly basis. A mentoring agreement with the RC mentor will be signed prior to the first session.

Mentors who are recruited to become volunteers will be provided online training before they take on the role of the mentor. No accredited counselling qualification is required but life experience is crucial for this role.
