Marmalade Trust is an award-winning charity dedicated to raising awareness of loneliness and empowering people to make connections. Based in Bristol, we support people of all ages who are experiencing long-term loneliness, helping them to feel more connected and understood.
Our key projects include:
- Christmas Cheer: Providing Christmas Day gift hampers and delicious three-course dinners for those who would otherwise be alone, creating special memories and a sense of belonging.
- Marmalade Connections: Supporting individuals to build meaningful relationships and reduce feelings of isolation.
- Loneliness Awareness Week: A global campaign to raise awareness and understanding of loneliness, encouraging open conversations and community action.
We offer guides, resources, and expert information to help people learn about loneliness, its effects, and ways to manage it. Our website features stories from volunteers and project members, sharing how Marmalade Trust has brought connection and joy to their lives.
How you can help:
- Donations help us provide information, gift hampers, and festive meals for those in need.

We are a small team with a big mission, and we welcome support from individuals, organisations, and businesses.
