About Us

Meet at Last is a dating service for single professionals and entrepreneurs in London and across the UK.

We offer a range of events, coaching, workshops and online dating plus a host of related resources for our members.

Clare Gillbanks founded Meet at Last as events or 'singles parties' in September 2003 with the first party at a bar called The Last in Shoe Lane EC1.

It was a great success, based on a simple concept of filling a room full of fantastic people and letting them meet and mingle in a relaxed but fun atmosphere. The next event was even bigger and Clare was being asked to do more parties every few months.

Meet at Last has since developed into an established and reputable dating service for professional single people in and around London offering events and other related services that can help people meet new friends and perhaps someone more long term from Coaching to Online Dating. Clare has been named the Dating Angel and offers one to one consultations for people wishing to widen their social circle.

Meet at Last is known for it's Parties without the Pressure, great customer service and a great night out meeting friends. We bring lively, attractive interesting people together socially and try not to interfere too much with gimmicks or embarrassing ice breakers.

We do not promise that you will find 'the one' at the first event but many guests have done just that and we have some wonderful success stories featuring weddings, babies, and great lasting relationships…

"Lots of people ask why I started the business and that’s an easy one to answer. I was single at the time and I'd just had my 30th birthday party. I had been to a couple of the well known singles events in London and found that I didn't like the mass market approach to meeting people. I was sure I could do better and here I am with hundreds of people hooked up and some fantastic nights out to remember..."
