Online Dating for Beginners

Newly single? Wondering how to begin again with online dating? What is it all about anyway? Don't worry - there's no shame in meeting people online, it's how people of any age meet these days!

This workshop teaches how to make a good profile, how to take decent profile pictures, what to write in your profile, how to ask someone out for a coffee date - then book it into your phone calendar. We will also do some practice speed dating to help your communication skills and confidence.

This is like a LinkedIn profile review of your personal profile to make sure you are showcasing yourself positively.

In no time you'll be swiping right and setting up coffee dates for face to face chats!
