Meet the Team
My name is Caroline and I am passionate about bringing people together for fun experiences. I am founder of the Galway City Social club (2012) and the 1,000km Ireland Way hiking trail (2013). Currently I run Weston Club and will soon launch a new Matchmaking Service called MatchMe.ie. I hold qualifications in Visual Communications and International Entrepreneurship Management.
In 2021 I signed up with a Matchmaker who I heard advertised on the radio. Having paid quite a large sum of money I had high hopes of finding a suitable match. The Matchmaker did not respect my age limit or location preferences and pushed me to date up to 10 years older and men who were farther than I was willing to travel. At a cost of €800 I was left very disappointed with the service.
After that experience I learnt that the Matchmaking industry in Ireland is completely unregulated. While matchmaking services should operate with integrity and prioritise the best interest of their clients, without specific regulations, it is difficult to enforce ethical standards or hold matchmaking services accountable for their practices.
Over 1 year later, having found no better alternatives (i.e. still single!), I decided to set up Weston Club as a social club to bring together people of a similar age and mindset to socialise and connect over activities and events.
Through the social club I heard about many more negative (and some positive) experiences with matchmakers. In June 2023 I launched Weston Club Matchmaking to provide a better and more transparent service, which will re-launch in 2025 as MatchMe.ie.
Alas! I am no longer single....but continue to help others find their special someone.
