Happy to Chat more

So the Happy to Chat benches have started to spring up on Yate Town Council land all over Yate - but now the Town council are challenging other landowners in the town, pubs, cafes, surgeries etc to think about whether THEY could put in happy to chat signs on some of their seats.

Loneliness is all around us, so why not label a table, or group of seats as a happy to chat area?

Happy to Chat?

New ' Happy to Chat' signs are springing up on benches around town. The first ones are at St Mary's Green and Kingsgate Park. Sit there if you are happy to chat to others. Done by Yate Town Council following an idea from the police to combat loneliness. If you know of a bench that should have a sign please tell the Focus Team.
