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

    Many years ago, I attended a rural college. Looking back on it now, at nearly 65, I reckon that there were many very agreeable (and also a few very disgreeable) folks there who I now wouldn't hesitate to consider might be neurodiverse. I'm thousands of kilometres away these days, but still reckon that following your old interests will nearly always lead you in the right direction; even as an expat. Even my interest in my own condition has put me into contact with several specialists in the ND field. A lot can be communicated in say a Zoom meeting.

    I was just this morning looking into the whole World of a few things like electronics, coding, single board computers and languages, and was absolutely blown away by the quality of people who are really active in those fields these days.

    Just pursue a few of your lock-down interests, as well!

    This is  something that the UK does still have going for it! This might well be the UK's future, far more than any recent UK government has been able to envision. At your age, you might well be a part of the vanguard!
