Not yet. Newtown is waitlist only for now, like the rest of Mid Wales. Sign up and choose Newtown, and you will hear from us when your area opens.
Plan it like any first meet: somewhere public, in daylight, with your own way home. Tell a friend where you are going. Members verify a phone number before they can message, and it is worth checking for the optional live selfie check before you set off.
Try a coffee and a look round Oriel Davies, a riverside walk along the Severn, or a show at Theatr Hafren. If you want to stretch your legs, Dolforwyn Castle has great views over the valley.
Date with intelligent compatibility pairing, not endless swiping.
