Dear Girls,

I started this club during a time of big change in my life. I'd been lucky enough to find new, supportive friendships in the same city, and somewhere along the way I realised just how much that kind of connection can shift things. Having people around you who listen, show up, and genuinely root for you changes you. I wanted more women to have that too.

What began as a small idea has grown into something I'm really proud of. A little community made up of women from all walks of life. Some new to Edinburgh, some rebuilding, some just craving friendships that go a bit deeper. We spend time together over coffee, creative workshops, walks, journaling evenings, and low-key social moments, and friendships tend to form in the gaps, without any pressure to make them happen.

Dear Girls Club is for anyone who's ever felt a little out of place, or quietly wished for more meaningful connection in their everyday life. You don't need to be outgoing, have it all together, or know anyone already. You just need to show up.

At the heart of it is kindness. No cliques, no judgement, no performance. Just honest connection and women supporting each other in small, real ways.

With love,
Shaira
