Our story
A welcoming place to talk since 2018
ChatFriends began with a simple idea: everyone should have somewhere welcoming to talk and people who are pleased to see them return.
Since opening in 2018, adults from across the UK have joined us to share their days, exchange stories and enjoy good company. Some of the people who found ChatFriends in its early years are still part of the community today. Their continued friendship means a great deal to us.
People arrive for many different reasons. Some miss the lively chat rooms they enjoyed years ago. Some want to meet people beyond their usual circle. Others simply fancy a friendly conversation after a long or quiet day.
The technology has changed since the first great wave of internet chat rooms, but the reason people enjoy them has not. We still value a proper hello, a good laugh and the feeling of being remembered when we return.
