ආයුබෝවන්வணக்கம்Welcome
The Sri Lankan community,
all in one place.
Find Sri Lankan shops, restaurants and services near you. See what is happening in your town. Buy and sell locally. Keep in touch with people who get it — without everything disappearing into a WhatsApp group nobody can search.

Furniture, cars, phones, rooms and everything else — within the community, near you.
Why Ceylon Chat exists
Most of what holds the community together lives in WhatsApp groups — the plumber somebody recommended, the date of the temple service, the flat going spare. It works until you need it again, and then it is a thousand messages up and gone.
This is the same community, in a place where things can be found twice. Run independently, free to join, and not part of any other network.
Find the shop, not just the postcode
Opening hours, phone number, photos and real reviews — for the grocer, the salon, the builder, the accountant.
Know what is on this weekend
Avurudu, Vesak, Deepavali, Christmas, cricket screenings, temple and church services, fundraisers — listed by town, with the date.
