This Bristol based charity is dedicated to raising awareness of and combatting loneliness. It brings companionship and joy to those who would otherwise spend Christmas day alone. The Grateful Society funds the hosting of free lunches for lonely individuals on Christmas day throughout Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire supported by a network of friendly volunteers. One diner commented “It means everything to know someone cares. Without the Marmalade Trust, I wouldn’t have spoken to or seen anyone over Christmas. I am so grateful”
