What makes over50sfriends.com.au unique is that it is completely free to members and the focus is on activities and making friends - not dating. There is no membership fee and the site is paid for by advertising. The banners you see on every page are just like the ads on Free-to-Air TV only a lot less annoying. Over50sfriends.com.au is not a dating site, it is a web based community where people with similar interests can make contact and plan activities together.Over50sfriends.com is for Australian singles and couples over 50 who would like to make new friends and get together to pursue mutual interests whether it be a golf partner or another couple for bridge. Members can post events, activities and organise their own events in the Forum and Events Calender. If for example, there is a concert or play on near you and you would like to organise a small group or just a companion to go with, you can include those details in either the Forum or Events Calender.
Every member can post their own Profile with information about themselves, their interests and what they are looking for. We do need a working email address to confirm your membership to avoid spammers but this can be a Yahoo or other free web based email if you are cautious about giving away your email address. We will never give out your email address or any details you provide to any other person or agency - please see our Privacy Policy for more details.
Your email address is not posted anywhere on the site and you can contact other members through our built in Messaging System or our Chat Room without having to give them your email address.
We realise that the 50s can be a very rewarding time but also a difficult time for some people because of divorce, bereavement, children leaving home or changing address and leaving friends behind. At over50sfriends.com.au you can meet new friends, take part in your favourite activities and set your own pace.
We are only a new website and we are looking for new mebers so if you like what we are trying to do, please tell your friends. You can use our Invite a Friend page to automatically tell friends about our site. There is a link to it on the bottom of every page.
We do hope you will join with us to make this site a real success for its members. We welcome suggestions and comments from members and potential members and you can contact us by clciking on the Contact Us link on the bottom of every page.
Thank you for visiting over50sfriends.com.au.
