I just had to write and say thank you for setting up Emily’s Group all those years ago. It is such a fabulous resource. Over the years it has helped me and been much appreciated whether for builder recommendations, help for elderly parents or medical issues. As much as anything it’s great for people to feel they are not the only ones going through difficult times and fellow members give brilliant suggestions for sources of support or help.

To the member who wrote to thank fellow members for their help and advice regarding the teenage years. Your letter made me, not for the first time, marvel at the wonder that is Emily’s Group and the service Emily herself provides in facilitating this connection between women, enabling us all to find help, support, advice or visibility as needed.

I can’t tell you the number of times I’ve been thinking about an issue I need a lead with and something serendipitously pops into my inbox from emilysgroup.

So, thank you each and every one of you and a huge thank you to Emily for tirelessly facilitating this potent exchange as you do.

A few months ago I saw an advertisement on Emily’s Group for a tutoring agency and they helped find my daughter two great tutors. Another example of how great Emily’s Group is!
Much appreciated.

Having found a wonderful babysitter last time we needed after school babysitter help, I’m hoping we can strike lucky again as it was a total lifesaver finding someone last time we were looking and all thanks to being a member of Emily’s Group.

Good news! My advert has resulted in my finding a tenant for my top flat! Thank you so much. Another success for your wonderful Group. I’m so grateful.

As a full-time working mother I miss all information swapping coffee mornings – but I fret not! – I know I can ask Emily’s Group to help me find anything. It is a lifeline to other wise women - who take the time to offer advice, and who I in turn can help.

LHG Community & Support

I’ve been a member of the group since it’s launch in 2006 and have benefited so much being part of it all. Apart from the fabulous name, I’ve found nannies, builders, therapists and also shared wonderful people in my life who have gone on to benefit other members of the group.

EF Recommendations

Hi Emily, I just wanted to write to thank you for the recommendations you sent over. Emily’s Group is an amazing resource and has helped me out in several tricky situations. What makes it different is that it is curated, and that the group is also large enough to allow for diversity of thought and different experiences. Opinions are sought and seem to be genuinely valued. What is also helpful is the option to post anonymously, so that highly personal or potentially embarrassing dilemmas can be raised and resolved discreetly.

Hi Emily, I just wanted to say a HUGE thank you. I have been really overwhelmed by the amazing response to my request for counselling recommendations. Some people even emailed their own personal experiences and it made me feel less alone and gave me hope that my mum can / will heal eventually.

RH Community & Support

Dear Emily, I wanted to write and let you know how much I enjoy being a longstanding member of Emily's group, a remarkable network of women who generously share invaluable advice and insights on a wide range of topics from navigating divorce to holiday tips and finding trustworthy builders. I wholeheartedly recommend this exceptional group.

LB Community & Support

Emily’s Group has been an invaluable resource over the years. It’s great that there’s a big network of like-minded women out there who I can tap into when needed, and in turn who I can help when I can with my own recommendations. Thank you Emily!

The monthly newsletter is dangerous.
I just bought a book, booked a swim session, shared the Bristol lido location with two friends and subscribed to the Mel Robbins podcast.
Gosh you’re a curator after my own heart! I love it.
Thank you.
Will start saving up for the next one!

Your mailing list is WONDERFUL! Hooray!

SS The Prescription

Emilysgroup has been such a fantastic resource over the years. I honestly don't know where I'd be without it. Emily and her members are so helpful with any requests, from finding children's party entertainers to recommending menopause experts. It's always reassuring to know there are people happy to share their life experiences and trusted contacts and to be part of this great community. Many a chat with friends and family has ended with 'I'll ask Emily's Group...' And it's never failed.

Hi Emily, I wanted to say thank you to you and let you know how much of a positive impact your group makes.

Being a part of Emily’s Group has been wonderful. I have managed to let my flat through it several times and currently to a lovely lady who is still there 3 years later. I have also found a cleaning lady, got a free pool table for our children, bought various things and generally had lots of positive experiences through this wonderful network.

Emily is really lovely to deal with and I’ve learned all sorts of things including recommendations for professionals to deal with a huge range of medical issues. Thank you Emily for all your hard work.

LOVE this group. Always so helpful!

Emily's Group is like having a huge knowledgeable group of wise and savvy friends and family, with experience in all areas of modern life. I have found gardeners, nannies, therapists, school insights, party ideas, and more. It's the most useful network I know.

Thank you - as always - for the wonderfully efficient and helpful service you provide.

Emily's Group proved to be an invaluable network when my niece arrived from South Africa. She posted a message on the group looking for work as a nanny, within a couple of days she had secured a position with a lovely family in London. Through the contacts she met, she then went on to secure a job as a teacher in a school in the city. Many thanks to Emily's Group for this amazing start to her London experience, she is now settled here and couldn't be happier.

I love Emily’s Group. What a great network of interesting women, the reach is enormous. I’ve hired nannies, cleaners, builders. I’ve found holiday homes, bought and sold furniture and even got a job on the site. I dare anyone to not find what they want within the group!

My wife raves about Emily’s Group and when I was recruiting for a new office manager for my business she suggested I advertise on Emily’s Group. I found someone brilliant within a few days of posting and she’s been with me for 12 years.
