Meeting more Autistic people my age.

Hello. I am 32. I recently came to understand I am autistic and I am still trying to figure it out. 

I don't have many friends, just one who is also autistic. But I have a therapist and a personal trainer who are autistic which has been a massive help. However I have to pay to see them and can't form a friendship with them outside of that. I also want to know more people my age too which is important for me. I have very little social experience and struggling getting to know new people. I also don't like groups of people, so I like one on one interactions. 

I do seem to find it much easier to connect with other autistic people too. I just want to make a proper friend who I feel I can just ring anytime and chat or whatever. I have never had that sort of friendship since I left school. 

So is there any resources or groups anyone knows which supports people in my situation. It would have been much easier in my early 20's I think to find stuff.
