Childfree Connection

Childfree dating in the United Kingdom

Childfree dating in the UK, without the "maybe one day".

The United Kingdom is Childfree Connection's second-largest country, with members from London to Edinburgh and more joining every month. Everyone here has already decided against kids, so you can skip straight to whether you get on.

Free to join and use. Adults only (18+). Now in Open Beta, open to everyone.

Why it works here

A worldwide community, with a real UK presence.

Childfree Connection started in the United States, but nearly half of its members now live elsewhere, and the UK sends more of them than any other country outside America. About half of the people who find us on Google search from outside the US, and the UK is at the top of that list too.

That matters for dating. A niche app only works when there are enough people within reach, and the UK's density helps: London, the South East, the Midlands and Scotland all have members. Discover shows distances so you know who is actually nearby, and Friendship mode means every week can be a good week for meeting people.

  • The UK is our second-largest country, and second for the Google searches that reach us. October 2026.
  • 52% women and 46% men across the whole app. Of members who state a gender, October 2026.
  • Events can be online as well as in person, and UK evenings overlap with the US East Coast afternoon, so a video call or a mixer works across the Atlantic.
  • Groups for travel, books, gaming, pets and more are open to every member, wherever they live.

Beyond the UK

Open to long distance? The rest of the world is one tap away.

Set your Discover radius to the UK and Ireland, or open it to Europe and beyond. Members can mark "Open to long distance" on their profile, and starting with messages and calls across a border is normal here.

How it works

Three steps, no swiping.

  1. Join free

    Create your profile on the web or in the app: photos, prompts, interests and the Essentials that matter to childfree life. Everything you need is free.

  2. Choose romance, friendship or both

    Discover shows childfree people near you in the UK, or anywhere in the world, in the mode you pick. Filter by distance, age and lifestyle, or open it up to the whole world.

  3. Send a Connect

    A Connect is a personal note, not a swipe. When it is returned you can message, call and meet. Groups and events are there whenever you want more than one-to-one.

From the founder

I built Childfree Connection to help take the stigma out of being childfree. It's a valid choice, and the people who make it deserve to find each other, whether that's a partner, friends or both, wherever they live. On mainstream apps, "I don't want kids" ends a lot of conversations; here it's where they start. We started in the US, and members have now joined from about 85 countries. To me that shows childfree life isn't an American trend. It's worldwide, and it isn't going anywhere.

Questions

Good questions.

Are there really childfree singles in the UK on the app?

Yes. The UK is our largest country after the United States (October 2026), both in members and in the Google searches that reach us, and more join every month.

Does the app show distances in miles?

Discover shows how far away each person is and lets you set how far you will look, so you can keep it local or widen it to the whole of the UK.

Is Childfree Connection free in the UK?

Yes. It is free to join and use everywhere: your profile, Discover, Connects, messages, groups and events. Optional memberships add extras.

Can I use it on my phone?

Yes: the web app works in any browser, and there are apps for Android (Google Play), iPhone (TestFlight beta) and Windows. One account works on all of them.

Is it for dating only?

No. Pick Romance, Friendship or Both in Discover. Many UK members use it to find childfree friends as well as partners, and groups and events are open to everyone.
