Our Activities, Programs & Weekly Gatherings
Our Weekly Gatherings
Every Friday from 12 to 4, we meet at the Cambridge Unitarian Meeting Hall. It's a relaxed afternoon - you can join in as much or as little as you like.
Some people like to cook, others prefer to chat or just sit with a cup of tea. You don't need to book, and it won't cost you anything.

A variety of activities to suit different interests
Seasonal Crafts
Throughout the year we enjoy different hands-on activities - wreath-making around Christmas, or other crafts that members suggest. It's a nice way to spend time together.
Home-Grown Vegetables
Many members have gardens and bring along their vegetables to share. It's lovely to cook with fresh ingredients that we've grown ourselves.
A Typical Friday
Here's what a usual gathering looks like
Arrival & Welcome
Doors open and everyone is welcomed. Tea, coffee, and light refreshments are available. It's a time to settle in, catch up with familiar faces, and meet new people.
Cooking Begins
We gather in the kitchen to plan and prepare our meal together. Whether you're an experienced cook or a complete beginner, there's a role for everyone.
Meal Time
We sit down together to enjoy the meal we've prepared. This is a time for conversation, laughter, and connection over good food.
Free Time & Activities
The final hour is flexible - people chat, play games, share stories, or engage in creative activities. Some prefer quiet conversation while others enjoy group activities.
Wrap Up
We tidy up together and say our goodbyes. Everyone leaves knowing they're welcome back next Friday, and the Friday after that.
How Members Participate
Everyone chips in however they can. There's no pressure - you just do what feels right.
Share a recipe if you know a good one
Bring veg from your garden if you've got some going spare
Suggest something you'd like to try doing together
Just turn up - honestly, that's enough
