Get Involved
Help us spread the Talk 10 message by sharing your #Talk10 Moments on social, or by holding a Talk 10 event at your university, workplace or community group.
Join our mission to create connection across Dorset with Talk 10 – a new initiative to get people talking.
For the month of May, we are encouraging members of our community to build a daily habit of social connection, simply by spending at least 10 minutes talking to someone else.
Just 10 minutes per day can…
A chat with a flatmate, a call to your nan, a cafe conversation with a stranger: just 10 minutes could change someone’s day, supporting your wellbeing, as well as theirs.

Help us spread the Talk 10 message by sharing your #Talk10 Moments on social, or by holding a Talk 10 event at your university, workplace or community group.
Please note that Dorset Mind Offices are closed from 24th December until January 2nd
