Why We're doing it
Loneliness isn’t just “feeling a bit on your own.” It’s a growing crisis. Did you know that…
- 85% of UK adults experienced loneliness in the last year.
- 44% felt chronically lonely.
- 500,000 older people go five to six days a week without seeing or speaking to anyone!
- Shockingly, 3.9 million older people say television is their main company. We can change that, one act of kindness, one conversation, one connection at a time.
This is personal for me. Having struggled with loneliness myself, and knowing how isolating it can be (especially around Christmas), I’m passionate about creating moments that bring people together. That’s what Be Dating Beautiful was founded on and it’s why supporting Marmalade Trust feels so close to my heart.
Let’s come together as a community, lift each other up, and make sure no one is alone this Christmas.
