About us
If you consider yourself introverted, sensitive or shy, then we're your people.
Our Meet Ups across Cornwall gently connect quieteers like us in a safe, relaxing space where it's okay to talk and it's okay to be quiet too.
We can't wait to welcome you.
Why we're (quietly) meeting up
We know what it’s like. Meeting new people and going to new places as an introverted, shy or sensitive person can feel daunting. So often it feels like we need to try and push ourselves to match the louder, chattier people in the room to be able to form connections and let our voices be heard. But it shouldn’t have to be that way. We believe that there should be more inclusion, fairness and equal opportunities in society for quiet people like us - and our regular Meet Ups are one of the ways that we’re advocating for this change.
We’ve created these safe spaces across Cornwall to help you connect with likeminded quiet people, feel more confident and flourish as your true quiet self.
Here, your quietness is not only accepted… it’s celebrated.
What to expect from the Meet Ups
A relaxed, welcoming environment
We’ve carefully chosen our Meet Ups spaces so that they’re calm, cosy and comfortable and we tend to keep our groups small. We have casual, optional activities for you to participate in if you wish. And tea, coffee and biscuits are a given!
It’s okay to talk and it’s okay to be quiet too
We understand that you may prefer to ease into conversation gradually, or that some days you might like to sit quietly with a good book whilst simply in the company of others. We welcome both quietude and chatter.
You can go at your own pace
Our intention is to help you connect with others - but there’s absolutely no pressure to participate or set any big goals. You’re invited to step into the space and contribute when you're ready; or you can sit back and quietly observe if that’s what feels right for you.
A community of understanding
Our gentle-natured group leaders and the quieteers attending our Meet Ups are likely to share similar feelings and experiences with you. So here you can connect with people who truly get you - and feel part of a supportive, welcoming community.
A space to be yourself
We encourage stretching your comfort zone and trying new things. But ultimately our Meet Ups are designed to help you simply be with other quiet people in a way that feels authentic to your true, quiet, wonderful self.

Saltash Creative Get-Together for Quieter Adults
Saltash Studios, 24 Fore Street, Saltash, GBThursday 20 August 2026, 2pm–4pm
Saltash Studios, 24 Fore Street, Saltash, PL12 6JL
Free | 10 places
Come and spend a relaxed creative afternoon alongside other quieter people at Saltash Studios.
This free get-together is for adults who are introverted, shy or highly sensitive, experience social anxiety, or simply prefer quieter, lower-pressure ways of being with other people.
Sometimes it’s easier to spend time with people when there’s something to do together. So rather than arriving and having to make conversation straight away, there’ll be creative activities around the room to explore at your own pace.
You might chat while you’re creating, enjoy being quietly alongside other people, or simply focus on what you’re doing.### Creative activities
#ReframeQuiet poster making
Explore quiet strengths through artwork. You can create your own poster, with colouring sheets available if you’d prefer an easier creative starting point.
HushFest song lyric art
Listen to the HushFest Song and use it as inspiration for something creative.
Textiles and beginner crochet
Explore wool and beginner crochet patterns, with materials, instructions and examples available to help you get started.
We’ll also have our familiar Quiet Connections activities available, including colouring sheets, word searches and writing paper.
Everything is optional. You might try all three activities, choose just one, bring along a creative project of your own, or simply have a cup of tea and enjoy being around other quieter people.
Chatting is welcome, but it isn’t expected.### What to expect
We’re keeping the get-together small, with up to 10 places, so please sign up to secure your place.
There’ll be time to arrive, get a drink and settle in before exploring what’s available. There won’t be an icebreaker or an expectation to introduce yourself to the whole group.
Ellie from Quiet Connections will be there to welcome everyone and join in with the afternoon too.
All the essential creative materials will be provided, along with free tea and coffee. We’ll also have a set of headphones and an MP3 player for the HushFest Song, or you can use your own phone and headphones. A QR code will be available to access the song.
You’re welcome to bring your own creative materials, a project you’re already working on, or your own snacks and drinks if you prefer.### Finding us
We’ll be in the Kitchen/Workshop inside Saltash Studios.
When you sign up on our website, you’ll receive full details, including how to find us and what to expect when you arrive.
Places are free but limited, so please book in advance:
