If you’re reading this, there’s a good chance you’re out here looking for a new and exciting way to spend an evening, and that’s what we’re here to provide. Do you enjoy card games? Do you want to meet more likeminded people? Are you sick of me asking questions? Then let’s talk 😊 First thing is first… our names are Jordan and Ella. We’re here to hopefully bring together a nice little community of people who like having a nice social catch up with people who enjoy the same things, and enjoy having a laugh whilst playing unconventional (but also normal as well) tabletop games. We want to play some fun little card games with likeminded people, have a laugh, and quite possibly even make some new friends along the way. We have discussed some games that we could play, and a good few of them are a bit unconventional, but absolutely fun. We will still have the normal games like Uno and other classic favourites, but we have other lesser-known games such as Chocobo’s Crystal Hunt, Love Letter (not as romantic as it sounds but you will still fall in love with it), and many others. There’s a lot that we could say about the operations behind our game night, but we’ll just give a TL;DR version for those of you who are already fed up with the amount of reading you’ve done so far. This is what we have so far:
If you think there’s anything that we’ve missed, please let us know and we will throw in that extra information. With all of that said, if you have any other questions, queries, suggestions, or just want to discuss things further, don’t even thing about hesitating to get in contact with Ella (0478637425) or Jordan (0407868818) by phone, or even send us a message on Meetup. We will do our absolute best to get back to you. Looking forward to hearing from you all, and looking way more forward to meeting you all in person. As a side note - please confirm via a direct message if you are coming or not, as we’d love to know who's coming in advance 😊 Ocean Keys Shopping Centre 36 Ocean Keys Blvd, Clarkson WA 6030 Perth, meetup4 AU – Join us for a cuppa and chat 🙂 Free to join, simply come along, and relax 🙂 John Wellard Community Centre Runnymede Gate, Wellard Perth, AU | April 9, 2026April 9, 2026●●●(5 events) – Here is your chance to get active!

What past participants had to say:“Last weekend I finished the most amazing course I have done so far. Words would never be enough to express my journey throughout The Possibility Fellowship. The course was a story-filled exploration of what's possible for me and my communities, for reimagining new possibilities for me, others and the world.” “When I started I was in limbo. Do I walk back on the path I was going on, or do I try to find something different, something new? I learned that my community work doesn’t have to be grand, that it can start from the people all around me. The Fellowship experience gave me clarity about my gifts and confidence to give them.” Port Kennedy Community Centre Please apply here Buy Tickets – Gentle Somatic Yoga will meet every Saturday morning.

Common questions about about all this
How do I find groups taking place near me?
Hosts list their event on a website called Meetup. It’s easy to use, free to create a profile and simple to look at all the events taking place across Perth! Whilst there isn’t an easy way to see events geographically, Hosts usually list the location of the event in the title.
You can also check out the map above, where you can look at the red pins, which mark events taking place in that area over the next 7 days.
If none of this floats your boat, then just give us a call or text, and we can help you find a local event you might be interested in!
How will I know who the Host is when I get to the venue?
Look for a yellow Befriend flag or a yellow table topper! Once a Host completes our Host training workshop, they receive a flag and/or table topper to help their group stand out from the crowd! Many Hosts are available to contact via Meetup too, so once you’ve RSVP’d to a gathering, you could always reach out to say hello and warmly introduce yourself.
Can young people and children attend?
Generally speaking, Befriend groups are for adults over the age of 18. There might be the occasional event where this isn’t the case (e.g. a picnic or end-of-year celebration) but broadly speaking, the Befriend Social Network is for adults looking to make new connections.
Are support workers and carers welcome to attend a group too?
Of course! Befriend groups really are a welcoming, comfortable space for anyone to pop along to, so if you’re supporting someone who is keen to get out and socialise, you’d be very welcome to accompany them and participate as much or as little as you’d like. You do you!
I can’t see any events I want to go to / that are happening near me. What now?
All groups taking place across The Befriend Social Network are run by local community members around Perth who have a desire and passion for getting to know people in their local community. These wonderful humans are called Hosts. Our role as an organisation is really about supporting those local people and their groups to thrive.
We aren’t able to control which events take place, when, or where they happen, as it really takes a community member just like you to put their hand up to give hosting a local group a go!
So, if there’s nothing happening in your neighbourhood that takes your fancy, you might need to travel to another suburb to find something, or, hey, maybe it’s time for you to bring The Befriend Social Network to your ‘hood and become a Host so you can put on your own group!
How many people usually go to a gathering?
Groups are generally small gatherings of between 3-15 people. It varies, depending on the activity and sometimes, how long the group has been running.
I am a carer of someone who might really enjoy participating in The Befriend Social Network. How can I connect them with you?
Thanks for thinking of us – we’d love to share more information about Befriend with anyone who has a yearning for community, is keen to experience new things, or just wants to sweeten their social life. The best way to connect us is to pass on our contact information or send them a link to our website. They’d be welcome to email, call, text, or even direct message on our social accounts! Once we’ve heard from them, a Befriendly Community Builder can get in touch for a chat and see what we can do to support their connectedness!
How do I know if an event is accessible?
Most Hosts will describe the accessibility of their event or venue in the description on Meetup. You are also welcome to reach out to the Host or to us to ask about a specific event.
I’m not on Meetup. Can I still attend?
Yes! But we recommend letting the Host know you’re coming—you can RSVP through us—so the Host knows to expect you, and if the event is cancelled or moved, you’ll get a heads‑up.
Still have a question?
You may find the answer on our general FAQ page or you can contact us via the details below!
