Hi Jammy
At the moment your best bets are either the Reach in Woolwich which should be about 40 minutes from you or Evolution in Groombridge which is probably a little closer. Evolution is a bit like marmite, personally I really like the atmosphere there and the guys that run it are really friendly and set some lovely problems, however it is quite run down and a bti dark and dingy compared to newer walls. In the winter though the atmosphere there is brilliant when all the outdoor climbers are forced in and their training room is brilliant.
If you wait a little while there is a much anticipated bouldering centre (Karma Climbing) opening up in Tunbridge Wells. It is being run by some guys that have made some awesome walls at other centres so will almost certainly be excellent.
With regards to the friends part you are more than welcome to come climb with me and the guys/girls I climb with. Generally we get outdoors every Tuesday, Thursday evening and Saturday from mid morning. Only exceptions are if it is wet and orrible we will be either headed to Evo (until Karma opens) for the weekday evenings or the Reach on a Saturday.
Feel free to get in touch if you want a climbing partner.
