About us
Friends, IRL – Cheltenham is a welcoming social group for women aged 30+ who want to make genuine connections in real life, not just online.
If you’re feeling a bit lonely, you’re new to the area, or you just want to make new friends, you’re in the right place. Meetups are relaxed and accessible, focusing on simple pleasures like walks, coffee, brunch, picnics, days out…and maybe the odd girl’s night out for good measure!
There’s no expectation to be loud, confident, or “on”. You won’t be forced into activities you don’t enjoy, and there’s no pressure to spend lots of money. Come as you are, whether you feel chatty, quiet, anxious, or somewhere in between.
The aim of the group is connection, kindness, and creating space for real friendships to grow.
If you’re looking for friendly faces, conversation, and a place where you can just be yourself, you’re very welcome here.
