About Us

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

Dear Ladies,

but can obviously speak English if necessary.

The last half an hour of the lesson is spent discussing our work and a small talk about a painter.

ART & Craft March meeting in Reans

A meeting of the Lunch Club Ladies interested in art and craft will be held on

Monday 4thMarch at 10:30 am in 




at a members house to discover what crafts and hobbies our Ladies Lunch  Club members are currently involved with.

This is to discover who is prepared to exhibit, promote and offer for sale if wished their crafts currently being produced. 
There are many talented and skilled ladies within our group who already produce wonderful craft work, amongst which are jewellery, cards, patchwork and tie work. 

We hope to discover many more who will be prepared not only to show or sell their work but to pass on some of their techniques, knowledge and expertise. 

There are those ladies within LLC interested and keen to acquire new skills and it only requires a willingness on the part of the craftswoman to share their knowledge.

A planned exhibition/sale is to be arranged in the autumn, in October/November 2013, and the date and venue will follow shortly.
