About Us

My photo
Réans, Armagnac, 32 Gers, France
Our objective is to promote friendship between women of all nationalities living in Gascony, SW France, to share our interests and to offer help when needed. The Club started in 2008, with twenty English ladies living in Gascony, using a foreign language and experiencing a new life. Since then, several different groups have been added and our membership has grown into the hundreds, with new ladies moving to the area and ladies who have lived here a while, who have discovered us, who want to make new acquaintances and discover new areas of interest. Today we have eleven nationalities, and our speaking/working language is English. The GLC meets on the second Tuesday of each month, excluding July and August.Every member receives an email each month, giving the name of the restaurant, the chosen, menu and a booking form. In 2014, we became a non-profit making Association, known as Ladies Lunch Club de l’Armagnac and was re-named in 2019 to Gascogne Ladies Club. Our annual subscription fee of 10 € is payable in January each year. Each member of the Club may participate in some or all of our various groups

Future Lunches

The Christmas lunch will be on 10 December at le Salle de fêtes, Réans.  We have arranged a special meal, which will be prepared by two of our members (Dagmar & Michelle).  To add to the festive spirit we will hold an internal marché de Noel.  More information to follow, but if you would like to sell something at the event please contact Carol Scott, who has kindly agreed to coordinate the marché de Noel.  Artists are also invited to bring a painting (and easel) to display.   For further information please reply to this email.
