Invested Friends
Find and connect with men near you. Get matched based on location and interests to make real-life meetups easy and natural.
A low-pressure, honest space for real conversations. Chat, share, and support each other with no judgment, just brotherhood.
From cold showers to connection prompts, each challenge is designed to break isolation, build habits, and spark energy in your week.
A practical coaching tool that helps you assess your current friendships and identify simple, powerful ways to improve them.
From hikes to ice baths to spontaneous pub meetups—connect offline and build trust the old-school way, without the awkwardness.
Let others know what you’re great at—or what you need. From business skills to simple support, this is a space to give and receive.
New here? You’ll be personally welcomed and supported by a small team of members whose role is to make sure you feel seen, safe, and invited in.
Dive into the stuff that matters—masculinity, purpose, growth, meaning, and mindset.
You’ve got a business. Maybe a partner. Maybe even kids.
And yet…
There’s no one to call when shit hits the fan.
No crew of guys who really see you.
Not just drink mates.
But proper, invested friends.
It’s not your fault.
Most men in the UK report having fewer than one close friend.
And in a culture that says "man up," we've lost the art of male connection — without even realising it.
This isn’t group therapy. It’s not kumbaya in the woods. And it’s definitely not a secret cult of breathwork bros.
It’s a practical, real-world path to building strong male friendships that actively improve your life.
You’ll meet weekly with a curated group of men in the
South Hams of Devon (and beyond), engage in social challenges, get group coaching, and form lasting connections.
A coach and community-builder based in Devon, Ben created Invested Friends to make friendship simple, local, and life-changing for men. After years helping men grow in business and life, he realised connection was the missing piece—and set out to change that.
"I didn’t realise how isolated I’d become until I joined Invested Friends. I’ve got a family, a business, plenty on paper… but something was missing. Within a few weeks, I went from dreading Monday mornings to actually looking forward to the calls and chats with the guys. It’s not therapy, it’s not woo-woo — it’s just real talk with good men who get it. I’ve made friends I’d actually call in a crisis. That’s worth everything."

"After having our first kid, I felt like I lost touch with who I was outside of being a dad and partner. I’d stopped seeing friends and didn't know how to start again. Invested Friends gave me a space to be me — not just a dad, or a husband, or a job title. It’s the first time in years I’ve felt genuinely supported by other men. I’ve laughed more, opened up more, and taken better care of myself since joining. Can’t recommend it enough."
