Adelaide CD Collective Storysharing Gathering 20 November 2025

Hello Adelaide CD Collective friends

Loneliness is a global public health concern affecting people from all social contexts across the lifespan. The common factor appearing in all strategies to combat loneliness is building social connection.

‘Community’ is frequently cited as a ‘solution’ to loneliness, but often with no roadmap or practical guidance. In our final session for 2025, we are excited to host Hayley Everuss and Nadia Corsini who will share some of their insights from the Spark Project. The Spark Project seeks to ignite human connection!

Please join us to explore/share ways we can all think about chipping away at the loneliness epidemic through our own community practice.

Standard ACDC format:

5:00pm set up

5:30pm light food and conversations. Bring a small something to share.

6:00pm news and invitations to action

6:15pm story sharing and reflection

7:25pm pack down

7:30pm informal catch ups nearby for those who wish to continue conversations

Please note the NEW VENUE. Take the lift or stairs to THE BASEMENT Gallery Space.
