The International Women's Club of Breda was founded in September of 1969.  It was originally called the British and American Ladies Club.  Now we have  50-60  members from about 17 different countries with an age range from 20’s to 80’s.  We’re single, married, working or full- time mothers. We’re retired, have grandchildren or are devoted to our hobbies.

The aim of the club from it's foundation to the present day is simply to provide a network of companionship and support.  Many of us find ourselves living in the Netherlands as a result of either our own or our partner’s work commitments or because we have a relationship with a Dutch citizen. Becoming accustomed to a new culture, environment and language can be difficult so the club is open to all foreign women together with Dutch women who have recently returned from living abroad.

All  members understand the challenge, frustration and fun of living in a different country.  We look after one another and become the extended family that we have all left somewhere else. The aim of the club is to avoid anyone new to the area feeling isolated and to extend a hand of familiarity and friendship that will last beyond your stay here.

We offer a warm welcome to all, so come along!!!!
