Welcome to Tirtle, I'm so glad you're here.
I've created Tirtle with one simple idea in mind: connecting people in real life — not through endless swiping on apps that turn you into a human trading card.
How it works
- Join the waitlist – Tirtle events will only hatch when enough people sign up
- Suggest event ideas – Want a cookery class, a board games night, or maybe a rollerskating meetup? Let me know.
- We create the event – The most popular suggestions get turned into actual get-togethers.
- Show up – Get your butt over to the event.
- Make friends & be jolly
What kind of events can you expect?
- Social hangouts: Coffee meetups, board game nights, pub crawls.
- Outdoor adventures: Group hikes, cycling tours, goat yoga, dog-walking clubs.
- Hobby huddles: Creative workshops, cooking classes, book clubs.
- Just-for-fun gatherings: Silly theme parties, mini road trips, fancy-dress fun runs.
Why I made Tirtle
It’s 2025, the era of “hyperconnection” – yet so many of us feel more isolated than ever.
Maybe you’ve moved homes or your circle’s drifted apart. Maybe you’re just sick of the chore-like nature of dating apps. Tirtle offers a fresh way to meet real humans, build community, and yes, if you attend a singles’ night, maybe even find a spark – without all the swiping.
Ready to dive in?
- Join the waitlist: It takes one minute! Sign up to stay notified about what’s happening near you. If you’re in the Cotswolds, keep an eye out for local events! But anyone can join – your town could be next.
- Spread the word: Know someone tired of swiping? Tell them about Tirtle—turtle fans welcome, too.
Tirtle is still young, and I’d love your ideas, feedback, and help shaping what it becomes. Let’s make something great together.
