National Conversation Week is all about the simple, pleasurable, and rewarding art of simply talking to each other.
We’re very much a society that’s “always on” and, unfortunately, the art of human conversation is becoming lost in a sea of emojis, swiping right (ask your single friends), chatbots, and dwindling attention spans.
Whether it’s keeping in touch with friends, updating a colleague at work, or trying to find the best insurance deal, most of us are guilty of hiding behind a screen to send a quick text, fire off an email, post a social media message or search online rather than taking the take the time to speak with somebody. That’s why we’re encouraging everyone in the UK to spend the week trying a little bit harder to engage with those around them be they a friend, family member, colleague, or customer.
We simply want everyone to talk more! And this year National Conversation Week will be focused on the inquisitive side of conversation, the one that helps us gain an understanding of the world around us – asking questions. During the week and beyond, we want you to feel liberated to ask whatever questions you want!
One way Millwall encourage conversations is at our Open Mornings at The Den every Wednesday 9:30am - 12:30pm.
The mornings are completely free of charge, with the aim of bringing the local community together in a friendly and sociable environment.
