About us
London Women's Meetups & Social Events is a welcoming community for women who enjoy culture, interesting places, good conversation, and shared experiences.
Part of the Women of Expansion community, the group brings together women who want to explore more of what London and beyond has to offer — from gallery visits and cultural meetups to day trips and occasional meetups abroad.
Many women attend events on their own, so gatherings are relaxed, friendly, and easy to join. Whether you're discovering somewhere new or simply enjoying conversation with like-minded women, the aim is always the same: to create enjoyable experiences in welcoming company.

Chocolate Truffle Making Experience – A fun, hands-on afternoon for women 🍫🤍
Location not specified yetJoin us for a slightly more intimate and indulgent Women of Expansion experience — a relaxed afternoon of chocolate truffle making, connection, and a lot of fun.
This is not just a meetup — it’s a shared, hands-on experience where we’ll be creating something together, laughing along the way, and naturally getting to know one another in a warm, easy environment.
We’ll be joining a guided chocolate truffle-making workshop (Please note, depending on the number of attendance from Women of Expansion, we may have to join a public mixed group), where you’ll learn how to make your own delicious truffles from scratch — mixing, shaping, coating, and decorating (with plenty of taste-testing along the way).
Experiences like this are where connections form effortlessly — no pressure, just a genuinely enjoyable afternoon with like-minded women.
