Look at groups you already belong to. Start by talking to<br />

people who you already have contact with. It could be a sports<br />

club, church group, your book club, your class at school, street<br />

committee, women’s group, neighbourhood watch or society.<br />

If your group is not keen, find other existing groups. Be<strong>for</strong>e<br />
