Marmalade Trust

Marmalade Trust is the only charity dedicated to raising awareness of loneliness and empowering people to make connections. We are also the hosts of Loneliness Awareness Week, a global campaign launched in 2017. To date the campaign has reached more than 600 million people and inspired more than 6,000 connection events to take place across the world.

Loneliness Awareness Week has a simple aim: to reduce the stigma of loneliness and encourage people to talk more openly about it across the UK and beyond. It is all about creating supportive communities by having conversations with family, friends, or colleagues about loneliness. Loneliness is a natural human emotion - we are hardwired to need social connections. By talking about it, we can support ourselves and others.

Join us this year from 9-15 June!
