Throw Dice, Not Stress with StressLess Games Afternoon

StressLess Week is inspired by the NHS 5 Ways to Wellbeing, and for this session, we are focusing on Be Active. Being active is not just about exercise or fitness — it is about engaging your mind, interacting with others, and doing something that helps you feel energised and refreshed without pressure. Sometimes, being active looks like laughing with friends, getting involved in a game, or trying something new.

Join us for a StressLess Games Afternoon, designed to help you switch off, have fun, and enjoy a change of pace in a relaxed and welcoming space. Whether you are competitive or just playing for the laughs, this session is all about having a go and enjoying the moment.

Throughout the session, you will be able to take part in a wide range of games, including classic board games, card games, and group favourites. You can dip in and out, try something new, or stick with a game you already love. Everything is set up to be easy, informal, and pressure‑free.

Alongside the games, we will be running a low‑key quiz with prizes to be won. You can join in as part of a team or take part on your own — there is no need to commit for the whole time, just jump in when it suits you. The quiz is designed to be fun and accessible, with a mix of light‑hearted rounds and quick challenges.

Whether you want to play games the whole time, focus on the quiz, or simply sit with friends and enjoy the atmosphere, this space is yours to use in whatever way feels right for you. There are no expectations and no need to be “good” at anything — just come along and take part at your own pace.

We will also have pizza, drinks, sweets, and snacks available throughout the session, so you can refuel, take a break when you need to, and then jump straight back into the action.

There will be two sessions available, running from TIMES?, so you can choose a time that works best for you and join us when it suits your schedule.

This is your time to play, laugh, and let your mind rest for a while. You might discover a new favourite game or win a prize, but more importantly, we hope you leave feeling more relaxed, more connected, and a little lighter than when you arrived.

Let’s game, you won't get board 🎲🎮🍕
