SOS.LT – Lithuanians

Back to Activities

Community group SOS.LT provides help, activities, and social connection for Lithuanian people living in Peterborough.

This activity is good for wellbeing because

  • It gives people a chance to interact and even build friendships
  • It helps people from a similar background connect and feel a sense of belonging
  • It gives people things to do and look forward to
