Chapter 2 is a phrase extensively used within the widow community and is used to describe friendship, companionship, dating or physical comfort, it means different things to different people. The app provides a safe space for widows and widowers who are either looking to move on and find happiness once again or simply want to dip their toe back into the world of dating once again.
Chapter 2 founder, Nicky Wake says: “I am delighted to finally announce our expansion into Australia and the USA. I have been blown away by how well received Chapter 2 was by the widow community. It shows me that there really is a need for a safe space like this for widows and widowers to revisit dating once again on their own terms and within a community of like minded people.
“Chapter 2 really is a passion project of mine. I myself tried the various mainstream dating apps out there and found it to be like the wild west so I knew an app like this was needed.
“I am so excited for Chapter 2’s ‘next chapter’ and particularly thrilled to be announcing this news on International Women’s Day. I have a lot of ambitious plans for Chapter 2 and will be announcing further plans later this year.”
