2026 Connect Group Registration

Welcome! 

It’s great that you are looking to be in a connect group this year and we’ll try our best to enable you to find something that works with your schedule. Below are the groups with empty chairs meeting throughout the week, from groups for young families, men's and women's groups, young adults, mixed adult groups and even a Mum's group! 
Have a look at the times and frequency and fill in the form below to register.
If you can't find anything that suits, please email Andrew Smith on ursmithy@gmail.com.  This will put you on my radar and I may be able to connect you with one of our other groups or connect a bunch of individuals to create something new.

Yours,
Andrew Smith
Connect Groups Coordinator
