Welcome,
Here at The Barefoot Tribe, we know that sometimes all it takes to change the world is a little support. Since our founding in 2019, we have been determined to make an impact on the lives of women aged 18+ who are looking for friendships in their adult life.
The core of our efforts is to create a safe and fun space for women to meet up regularly for a variety of fun social activities as a way of finding and connecting with other like minded individuals also looking for connection. This is a social movement for women to come together for fun, friendship and all around good times.
