Finding your community

Date

Author

We have looked at the benefits of practising creativity as well as the many different ways you can unleash it, but now it’s time to see where you can go. Taking part in hobbies not only develops your personal skills but also help shape the community around you. You can build connections through different passions and interests, leading to new experiences and opportunities. It’s a great way to lift your spirit and enhance your networking skills.  

Sometimes it can be difficult to step into new hobbies or where to find them, that’s why we have pulled together some resources to help you out.
