Sick of swiping?

Looking to meet people in real life? You're in the right place!

Your mates are all coupled up. You're the third-wheel on nights out. The last time someone set you up, it was a disaster. And let's not even go there with terrible online dates.

All you want is fun nights out with people who get it.

Again, you're in the right place.

Solo Connects offers in person dating events for people in Milton Keynes, Bedford, Northampton & Aylesbury.

If you're looking for friendship OR dating, we've got something for everyone.

We'd love for you to join us!

Coffee & Cake

Monthly Coffee & Cake events include a free optional walk - you can even bring your dog. A great way to get comfortable meeting people for the first time - it's definitely more friendship vibes (not dating vibes).

Solo Connects? Who's bright idea was that?

Solo Connects was set up by two single mums and business owners in Milton Keynes. Samantha Poole and Rachel Allen were sick of the swipe and knew they could build a fun and vibrant community for single people who wanted to connect with like-minded people.

Solo Connects is for people who are done with awkward dating apps and ghosting. We bring real people together in real life, because finding love (or a fun night out with friends) shouldn't be this hard.

It’s a ready-made social network for solo people in

Herts, Beds, Bucks, and Northants.

No more 'flying solo' - let's GO!!
