Love Later In Life: Online Dating 1

Jim Davis and Jo Hayward

Available for over a year

All this week in a special series for 麻豆社 Radio Leicester, we'll be exploring finding love, later in life. Today we're looking at internet dating, and exclusive analysis by research company Mintel shows that dating websites and apps are becoming increasingly popular. One in five people over 55 has met a partner or date online and it's now the fourth most popular way of meeting people. But even though more are turning to the web its not for everyone. Claire is 61 years old, she lives in South Leicestershire and she never anticipated being single at her age. But she's wary of internet dating.
