Online Dating for Senior Widows and Widowers in the UK

At Widows & Widowers UK, it is our number one goal to help you connect with other senior widows and widowers in a space designed just for you. Dating after becoming widowed is not like other forms of dating - it is a set of circumstances you didn't choose or expect. Therefore, the need to connect with others who understand what you are experiencing is key. At Widows & Widowers UK, we provide the ideal conditions for genuine friendships to form and true relationships to flourish.

As a senior widow or widower, you may like the idea of meeting somebody who can relate to your loss. Having spent many years with your previous partner, it is only natural that the reality of being single again can come as a surprise. Allowing yourself plenty of time to grieve is paramount, ensuring you go through the necessary emotions related to your loss.

Lifestyle changes, including getting used to no longer being in a couple, can be a sensitive period. As time goes on, you may come to feel the need to have somebody new in your life; somebody with whom you can share the ebb and flow of day-to-day living. Connecting with other senior widows and widowers is a great way to form new acquaintances and expand your social life.

I met an amazing man on your site. We have so much in common and we both live in the same city.
Deb, 28 November 2024
Ironically we both work for the same organisation but didn’t know each other. I noticed on one of his pictures that he was wearing a running top from our place of work and the rest is history
Lisa, 24 July 2025
I exchanged messages with him in late October 2024 and we had our first date in November. Since then things have been progressing nicely and we will be moving in together in August. I have definitely found love! ❤️
