Where to make Autistic friends?

Hello,

I would really like to make a friend who is also on the spectrum. Does anyone know where I can do this such as specific groups, Instagram pages or apps (like Bumble maybe?). 

I am 24, female and I live in Kent, England for reference. Would ideally like to make a friend who lives in my area.

thank you! :-D

    I've mentioned this many times before - you will find friends most suited to you if you look at your childhood passions and find those doing the grown-up version of it - and if they are into it, you can pretty much guarantee they are mostly on the spectrum too.  Smiley

    If you liked dressing up, then cosplay or comiccons, there's always local history groups, model making, Lego, wildlife, any nerdy museums - basically anywhere where people get together because of their specialist interests or skills - even things like archery and falconry - stuffed full of ASD people.  Smiley
