From Empty Chairs - Walton-on-Thames

**Loneliness can hit anyone, but a simple chat can change everything.** We run a regular, friendly table at [The Walton Village](https://www.facebook.com/thewaltonvillage?__cft__%5B0%5D=AZjpK9nDr9WD9l2M0WYADLlepsxEWjJ4xSKZP-jyK42H4TNSJNhOAfrXhfMg7OfI5FWNCiLrUK5lNUIDg3Y1w72013RMMgfU9OcYWAWMyMfab0X1HYPK2KbFt6TcJGwcIuRSouWRtjMlQZnhgdd4kgDWeeu1V2NsQ2ZbzWZm-zOar-NVPrxSgLcEE1O94pk&__tn__=-%5DK-R) pub on the 1st Monday of each month from 7pm. 🪑 WHAT IS EMPTY CHAIRS? It is a beautifully simple idea. We book a table, leave a few chairs empty, and make it easy for anyone to pull up a seat and join us for a casual chat. It isn’t a club, a rigid networking event, or a therapy session. It’s just an open invitation to connect with your community. 📍 Where: The Walton Village pub, 29 High Street, Walton-on-Thames, Surrey UK, KT12 1DG 📆 When: 1st Monday of every month, 7pm – 9pm 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Who: Anyone aged 18 to 80+ who wants a reason to leave the house. ❓ How: No sign-ups needed. Just turn up and look for Richard in the bright orange t-shirt! [The Walton Village](https://www.facebook.com/thewaltonvillage?__cft__%5B0%5D=AZjpK9nDr9WD9l2M0WYADLlepsxEWjJ4xSKZP-jyK42H4TNSJNhOAfrXhfMg7OfI5FWNCiLrUK5lNUIDg3Y1w72013RMMgfU9OcYWAWMyMfab0X1HYPK2KbFt6TcJGwcIuRSouWRtjMlQZnhgdd4kgDWeeu1V2NsQ2ZbzWZm-zOar-NVPrxSgLcEE1O94pk&__tn__=-%5DK-R) is an incredible, inclusive, and dog-friendly community hub (with excellent air-con to keep things chilled). There is zero pressure to buy a drink or stay longer than you want to. Come for five minutes or stay for an hour. Let's make our community feel a little less lonely, one conversation at a time. Learn more about the movement at www.emptychairs.org.uk See you there! Richard
