Video: GDI Meets Ollie Locke, Made in Chelsea Star and Co-founder of Chappy

Chappy is a new platform seeking to provide gay men with a safe, welcoming and high quality app for connecting and dating.

The service lets users choose between searching for ‘Mr. Right’ and ‘Mr. Right Now’, making sure there is no ambiguity for casual and serious daters.

Backed by Bumble, Chappy is currently marketing itself effectively to young professionals via its collaboration with Social Concierge, ‘Mr. Social’.

It has also looked to promote better online behaviour in recent months through its ‘Don’t be a D!ck’ campaign and the introduction of the ‘Chappy Pledge’.

GDI caught up with Co-founder, Chief Communications Officer and star of Made in Chelsea Ollie Locke to find out more about the app.
