Widow & widower dating in Richmond upon Thames

Richmond upon Thames is London's greenest and most riverside borough — the only one to span both banks of the Thames. Richmond itself, with its famous hill and protected view, sits across the water from Twickenham, Teddington, Kew, Barnes, East Sheen, Ham and Hampton. It is a prosperous, settled part of London defined by the river, by Richmond Park and Kew Gardens, and by a strong sense of community. For widows and widowers, few places offer such an abundance of calm, beautiful green space in which to meet someone new, close to home and entirely at one's own pace.

Richmond Hill, the river — and the view from the other side of grief

WidowDating.co.uk has connected widows and widowers across Richmond since 2009. Every member of our free widow dating site has lost a partner, so the understanding here is immediate. There is no need to explain the hard days. Our widow dating site introduces you to people nearby who have crossed the same ground, at whatever pace feels right to you.

Richmond Park, the towpath and first meetings

Richmond is unmatched for gentle, beautiful places to meet. Richmond Park — with its deer, ancient oaks, the Isabella Plantation and the protected view from King Henry's Mound — is one of the great open spaces of London. The Thames towpath from Richmond through Petersham Meadows to Ham is flat, lovely and ideal for a walking conversation. Kew Gardens, Bushy Park at Teddington, Marble Hill at Twickenham and the river at Barnes all offer memorable, unhurried outings. Richmond Hill and the Terrace Gardens give the famous view, and the cafes of Richmond, Teddington and Barnes are comfortable for a first coffee.
