About My Friend Charlie
My Friend Charlie is an innovative offline solution for the modern online dating industry. The idea is simple: sign up, attend a unique event, and start meeting new people - differently.
CEO Charlotte "Charlie" Spokes, founded the business in London in 2017 after recognising a gap in the market for singles looking to find love without the stress and safety concerns of meeting people from a typical dating app or website.
To date, My Friend Charlie has hosted over 80 events for singles, and has ~2500 users signed up to their services. They came runner up at the UK Dating Awards in the Dating Events category, and has participated in Virgin Startup's Step Up Accelerator.
MFC has successfully raised over £85,000 on FCA-regulated platform Crowdcube and has recently launched into their second city, Bristol.
