A welcoming community for people who live on their own.
Just Friends was founded by Frederick Smith in 2018 with a simple idea. Everyone deserves opportunities to meet new people, share experiences and feel part of a welcoming community.
What began as one local group in Eastbourne has grown into groups across East Sussex, including Bexhill, Newhaven, Hastings and Brighton, bringing hundreds of people together through friendship and shared experiences.
Whether you enjoy a coffee and chat, a short stroll by the sea, lunch with new friends, days out or special events, there is always something to look forward to. Members are welcome to join activities across all of our local groups.
There is no membership fee, no age limit and no pressure. Come along when it suits you and see if Just Friends feels right for you.
We look forward to welcoming you.
