Meeting gay (irish) people in London :)

Hey guys

Just wondering if anyone has any advice for someone in my situation or preferably has been through the same experience themselves!

I recently moved to London pretty much on my own and also came out fairly recently too! Although it is a great city that should have both plenty of gay guys and plenty of irish it still can feel a little lonely for someone fairly new to the scene. Meeting Irish people abroad is always a comfort as there is a special bond and humour that we just have. I am still a little reluctant to try Tinder/Grinder and do realise I should probably find a sports club of some sort I guess (*shudders*)

Im going to be realistic and assume there doesn't happen to be a regular monthly boards gay irish in London meetup but god loves a trier

Any advice anyway would be appreciated!

Cheers

Loads of gay groups on Meetup.com in London which might be much less intimidating and not at all hook up orientated.

'Mind Yourself' is a group that supports Irish people living in London. They have an LGBT section with links you may find useful,
