We have been working out how we can continue to keep a sense of community through the festival – despite it being online.
So we have collaborated with some of our favourite people to create a series of ‘live themed facilitated social meetings’ in a ‘virtual lounge’ – well ok, in a Zoom meeting!
In these events, you can see other people who are at the festival, make new friends and talk about the issues or ask the questions that you have about changing your drinking habits.
Please note that the Social Lounges are facilitated sessions to stimulate discussion only, and are not professional or medical advice. If you are worried about your alcohol intake in any way you must seek advice from a medical professional.
The Sober Sessions is a collaboration between Alex and Lisa, The Sober Experiment, Simon Chapple, founder of Be Sober and author of The Sober Survival Guide, William Porter, author of Alcohol Explained and Alcohol Explained 2, and David Wilson, aka Sober Dave. We host weekly panel talks streamed live into Facebook.
Sammy is a 26 year old Aussie girl who gave up alcohol earlier this year to improve her mental health. Since becoming sober Sam couldn’t find a community that understood the complexities of Australian drinking culture so she decided to create one, Sober Mates.
