It started with a coffee ☕️
It’s 2016. Two women are struggling to find friends who share their entrepreneurial spirit. Claudia reaches out to the universe (well, she searches in lots of social groups). As luck would have it, Ulrika gets in touch.
One coffee later, these strangers are now co-founders and friends. Many years (and many coffees) later, Claudia and Ulrika are still working hard, making it easier for thousands of women to start new friendships and adventures.

How do I find friends near me in the UK?
Gofrendly matches you with women near you based on shared interests, then makes it easy to meet in person — for a coffee, a walk, or a group activity — wherever you are in the UK.
How do you keep it safe?
Profiles are reviewed, reports are handled by a real team, and you decide what you share and when you meet.
Is the app free?

How is Gofrendly different from a dating app?

Is there an age limit?
You need to be 18 or over. Beyond that, members range from students to women in their seventies — you set who you’d like to meet.
