Child with no friends

My child is 7 and has no friends outside of school. What clubs do you recommend to connect with new people?

Honestly would depend on there interests all I would say is find something they enjoy and contact the club telling them about your child and any support needs at and go from there that's what I did for my daughter she does dancing and drumming as that was what she wanted to do she don't do friends for her she has 1 friend because no one else asked her permission to be a friend but she gets on with every one there and they see her as a friend x

Drama. I’ve both attended drama/musical theatre groups as an awkward kid and I’ve taught them. There is a lot of structure to help shy children come out of their shell, a range activities to keep ADHD brains engaged, and teachers are usually prepared for a wide range of abilities and behaviours. It also guarantees some interaction, while still letting each child have their own boundaries. There’s also no pressure to be “good” at it, unlike joining a sport. Children’s choirs can also be really fun if your kid likes to sing!

My girls did 4 types of dance- ballet tap jazz acro contemporary, and Girl guides at that age. That’s after they stopped swimming. Later they took up guitar. I was a dance mum for like 14yrs and they made friends and so did I, the mums. Ask your child what they like though there’s no point them doing something we want and they don’t really like it, and sometimes they change their mind mid way so be open to that as well.

My son is 6 years old and don't really have friends but would be open to have a penpal and write letters to each other every now and then when we go to the park he plays with other kids and he had some friends but I told him to stop playing with him because they were so mean to him because he's different then they are so he hangout with me and he has at least one buddy who also has ADHD his name is Mason .
