Speed Dating - 50-62 years (Must be within 2-3 years of this age)

We all need love and connection, and meeting in real life is making a massive comeback! If you’re tired of endless swiping, ghosting, and online small talk that never goes anywhere, this event is your chance to meet real single people face-to-face in a relaxed, friendly setting.

Who’s it for?
This event is for single people aged 50-62 (we allow 2-3 years either side, so 47-65 is fine). The only rule is that you must be single and open to meeting new people – whether that’s for friendship, dating, or something more.

What to expect:
✨ To chat with the other people of the same gender when you arrive - this is how the evening starts! It's a great way to settle any nerves (as everyone starts out nervously so that makes you normal).

✨ A series of fun, relaxed mini-dates where you’ll chat one-to-one with other singles for just a few minutes each. (Enough time to see if there’s a spark, without any pressure.)
✨ A break between rounds so you can grab a drink, chat with others, and take the evening at your own pace.
✨ At the end, you can privately mark down who you’d like to see again – no awkward rejections, no pressure. If it’s a match, I’ll connect you afterwards!

Why people love it:

• It’s so much easier than online dating. You get a real sense of chemistry in just a few minutes.
• Everyone’s in the same boat – a little nervous at first, but the atmosphere quickly becomes fun and friendly.
• Even if you don’t meet “the one,” you’ll have had a great evening out, with the chance to make new friends and expand your social circle.

Venue:
I am hosting this event at Haughton Hall Hotel in Shifnal. The bar is open beforehand, so you’re welcome to arrive early for a drink before the event starts (payable directly to the venue).

Important:

• Tickets are limited to keep the event balanced and personal – grab yours quickly before they sell out.
• Please arrive on time so you don’t miss the introduction.
• Bring your best self, an open mind, and don't put too much pressure on yourself.

Info: You need to arrive by 7.15pm so we can start on time. Entry is not guaranteed if you arrive late. When you arrive, you will be introduced to the other attendees - men will meet the men in one bar and ladies will meet the ladies in another area within the main dating room. People love this chance to meet each other and have a chat before the dating starts.

Info: There will be a short break between the dates where you can get drinks and use the bathroom
