A private space for Childless People
The Full Stop Community is your place where you can build friendships and connect with others who ‘just get it’. Be in our podcast audience and shape the CIC.
We give you space to envision a life as a childless person through growth and to be your perfectly imperfect self. You are not alone.

Talking about your life, the grief or the wins can be really hard out there in the wide world.
You decide to share a small win. Then people think you’re better. Maybe they think it’s okay to talk about their kids. But you’re still childless, the grief didn’t just disappear.
It’s so hard to find people who get it.
You aren’t looking for fixes, but a place to off load, share the frustations, celebrate a win, have a rant about something that’s bugging you and feel seen. Where you can pop into a chat or join the podcast audience … or not, the choice is yours.
That’s what we do.
A space where you’re not alone. Where you can chat with people who are childless in a private and secure place with fair and kind moderation. With people who ‘‘get it.
When you join
You’ll be welcomed in by hosts Michael and Berenice
01
Nurting each other.
When you’re in a safe space with new friends, you’re growing without realising.
02
You can chat with anyone at any time.
Drop into any conversation in a thread, day or night via the app.
03
That awful question ends.
Nobody is going to ask if you have kids and nobody needs to know how you became childless.
04
More in common.
You find more glue than childlessness (we like things that stick)
05
Your wins are important.
You pinned up a poster, retired, bought a new book or found that thing you lost. We celebrate it all.
06
You’ve been hugged.
We send you the Full Stop hug. If we meet in person, we do real hugs.
07
You shape the Full Stop.
Suggest a topic, host an event and start a new conversation. We’re custodians and you’re our force for good.
08
There’s space for everyone.
We welcome childless-not-by-choice people regardless of gender, sexuality, race, religion - in summary it’s a diverse and welcoming space.
09
It’s the price of a coffee.
When we set it up in 2023, we priced it at what people might spend on coffee each month - £10. You get a month free on us to start.
10
Workshops to nurture you.
Suggest a workshop, lead a workshop or attend one that we’ll be organising.
11 (why stop at 10?)
Share your stuff.
No promotional rules, we want to know what you’re up to and even better, you can share it in our newsletter.
We never want cost to block access to your space.
If £10 a month is too much for you, then please let us know. We have space for ‘pay what you can’ and gratuity memberships. We promise to handle your question in confidence and with the sensitivity and kindness you deserve.
