Faith to Faithless Apostate Socials
We know how isolating and confusing it can be to leave high control religions, and our socials are a fantastic way to meet new people in a relaxed setting. We host informal gatherings every month around the UK on the weekends and usually in a Museum Cafe or an independent Coffee Shop in the afternoon. Come along and chat with like-minded people; share ideas, talk religion, history, exchange stories, or socialise! Whether your background was Muslim, Jehovah’s Witness, Jewish, Hindu, or Christian, everyone is welcome. You do not have to have left religion to join us. All ages welcome too. Register to attend our Apostate Socials (amongst other Humanists UK panel discussions and lectures) here: Humanists UK events
Faith to Faithless Peer Support Meetings
These are private undisclosed meetings held in central London or online after work for two hours for up to 8 apostates at a time led by two of our trained facilitators. We usually run 6 meetings over 12 weeks, once every fortnight. Each meeting is two hours long. Unlike Apostate Socials, we do not publicise these meetings, they are strictly confidential. If you would like to attend our next Peer Support session please email: info@faithtofaithless.com
Thanks to the generosity of our supporters and volunteers, socials and peer support meetings are free of charge to attend.
