Opener Suggestion...
Hi everyone, and welcome to tonight’s WhatsApp live chat which is all about *Loneliness*. We have XX, YY, and ZZ here with you this evening.
We all experience feeling lonely in different ways. This means there are a range of ways we can try to overcome loneliness that will be individual to us. It's really important to remember that loneliness and difficult feelings can pass.
You’re very welcome to join in whether you’re new to the group, have been here for a while, or have mostly been reading along and now feel ready to say hello.
Please do support each other too, we’re all together in this and you bring so much by sharing your experiences and supporting each other.
Thank you, your peer supporters
