Meet Beyond the Swipe
A private local community for adults over 50 who are tired of traditional dating apps. Meet through Secret Pods, enjoy relaxed members' socials and see where the chemistry takes you.
We're gathering our local community before membership launches.
We're bringing together enough people over 50 for Secret Pods to have real connections from day one. Join the free waiting list and we'll let you know when the doors open.
Thanks for your patience — good chemistry is worth the wait.
The Open Secret is being built for open-minded adults in and around Horley, Redhill, Reigate, Crawley and Gatwick. Connect online through Secret Pods, with a monthly in-person social planned when at least 25 members confirm. The social is for meeting and chatting; attendance is optional and booked separately.
Meet people in your area, with a community centred on adults over 50.
Choose what you're comfortable with. Curiosity is welcome; nobody is expected to go further than they want.
Less judging by photos. More room for chemistry to develop through conversation.
There's room for different intentions. When membership opens, you'll be able to choose what feels right for you.
Your boundaries come first. You can keep the details private until you're ready to share.
No profiles to swipe through. We introduce you to a private Secret Pod for 48 hours of conversation and see where it leads.
Who you meet has an element of surprise, within the preferences and boundaries you choose when membership opens.
The pod is temporary. The connection doesn't have to be.
When membership opens, enjoy your first month completely free. After that, membership is £20/month until you cancel.
Cancel anytime, including before your first payment.
Joining the waiting list is free and does not commit you to a membership.
Be among the first to know when The Open Secret opens its doors.
