Over 50's Speed Dating @ Mint Leaf Lounge, Bank
**\*\*THIS IS NOT A FREE EVENT & RSVP ON MEET UP DOES NOT GUARANTEE ENTRY\*\***
**TO ATTEND THIS EVENT A TICKET MUST BE PURCHSED FROM OUR WEBSITE. PLEASE CLICK HERE TO PURCHASE A TICKET:** [https://truedating.co.uk/events/over-50's-speed-dating-20-feb-2026](https://truedating.co.uk/events/over-50's-speed-dating-20-feb-2026)
Join [True Dating](https://truedating.co.uk/), London's #No 1 speed dating and singles party host! With a track record of hosting hundreds of successful events all across London, we've helped thousands of people find their perfect match.
**But what exactly is speed dating?**
It's simple yet effective:
You'll have the opportunity to meet up to 15 potential dates, with each mini-date lasting around five minutes. It's the perfect amount of time to gauge if there's a connection. Ladies remain seated while gentlemen rotate, ensuring you meet a variety of interesting individuals.
Our events primarily attract working professionals who are tired of the endless swiping and are seeking something meaningful and long-term.
At True Dating, you can enjoy a friendly and secure atmosphere knowing that everyone is single and looking for the same thingâlove!
The day after the event, you can log in to enter your matches and potentially set up a second date using our secure messaging service.
**Please remember to enter your matches before 4pm as this is when the matching system closes.**
And here's the reality check:
In a bustling city like London, where everyone leads busy lives and dating options seem endless, finding the right person can be challenging. That's why our events are designed to increase your chances of meeting someone special who shares your goals and aspirations.
Contrary to popular belief, speed dating events are not weird or creepy. They've become increasingly popular as a refreshing alternative to online dating.
**What can you expect at our events?**
\- Diverse attendees at each event
\- Officially signed\-up participants
\- Higher odds of finding compatible matches
\- Friendly hosts to facilitate introductions
**Don't miss outâregister now for our next event! Spaces are limited, and our events often sell out fast.**
We have years of experience organizing successful dating events and creating meaningful connections. We're so confident that you'll find someone worth meeting again that if you don't, your next event is on us!
It's time to stop swiping and start dating in real life with True Dating. Join us for an unforgettable experience!
**Important details:**
Look out for an email from True Dating on the day of the event for account details.
Event starts at 7:30 pm with a reserved area for True Dating attendees.
Venue closes at 1 am.
*Stop Swiping. Start Dating*.

**WHAT ARE SYSTEMIC CONSTELLATIONS?**
The Systemic Constellations method is a unique therapeutic process of exploration of the forces that move us in life. Such forces are often appearing as difficulties or a sense of being 'stuck' in life, affecting our behaviour, relationships, career, health/wellbeing, or even financial circumstances. This method provides a three-dimensional âmapâ of oneâs life as it is at present. It is a simple yet powerful way to explore entanglements and blockages in our personal life and our family history. The method brings awareness and clarity into personal challenges by focusing the client on the root cause of such difficulties. Constellations provide an opening for a positive life shift and present ways for deep healing processes to occur.
**WHAT HAPPENS IN A CONSTELLATION SESSION?**
In Constellations work the âclientâ is referred to as the âIssue Holderâ.
The method uses workshop participants as âRepresentativesâ to stand in for key people in the clientâs life such as family members, colleagues, partners, ex-partners, etc., sometimes âabstractâ concepts such as an emotion, country of origin, religion, or destiny are also represented. All participants are invited to take part as Representatives. Workshop participants often report (see reviews: [https://bit.ly/33Asprs](https://bit.ly/33Asprs)) experiencing profound insights into their own lives by simply witnessing the process, regardless of how they choose to take part.
**WHY DOES THIS WORK?**
Scientific research shows that the experiences of your ancestors can determine your behaviour today and affect future generations.\*\* Recent scientific research into DNA reveals that a component named epigenetics is embedding the effect of a traumatic experience by altering the genetic structure. It means that some of our behaviour patterns can be attributed to traumatic events in our family history. This notion has always been one of the guiding principles of Systemic / Constellations Therapy, a form of work that is dedicated to exposing and dealing with issues emerging from our family system.
*âIt is only now that science is catching up with what is evident in Systemic Constellations work and visible in every one of our therapy sessions; trauma in the family history directly affects future generations' behaviour"* Illi Adato MD
Our group provides a safe space where deep personal work is done and where maintaining confidentiality and respect for each other's privacy is paramount.

Perfect for cheese and wine lovers â or anyone up for a fun, flavour-filled evening, with the chance to meet someone who shares their taste in vino!
Have a Merâlot of fun meeting fellow wine enthusiasts during this full-bodied evening of Old World wines and newfound single friends. Add a cheese and charcuterie board into the mix, and youâve got yourself some truly perfect pairings!
Youâll be welcomed at 19:15 by your Itâs a Date host, who will show you where to leave your jacket and introduce you to the rest of the group.
From there, youâll enjoy three 125ml servings of hand-selected wines â typically a red, a white, and either a rosĂŠ or sparkling option. Pairing notes will be provided to give insight into each wineâs origins, add context to the flavours, and offer easy conversational cues as we explore the wines (and each other) throughout the evening.
Mid-way through, weâll share a selection of cheeses and charcuterie â the ideal accompaniment to a relaxed, organic, and sociable night out.
Throughout the event, your host will make introductions and ensure everyone has plenty of opportunities to mingle and connect. Weâll wrap up around 21:00, after which the bar will remain open for a glass from your favourite bottle and the chance to continue socialising more widely.
Once home, you can access a list of attendees on your Itâs a Date dashboard to send match feedback and organise those second dates. A match is struck when two guests reciprocate identical feedback, indicating mutual intent to reconnect and enabling messaging via our online platform.
If you have any questions on the event or how things will work, please get in contact with James on 07517 065 492 or james@itsadate.club.
