OPEN 7 DAYS A WEEK TO PROVIDE BEFRIENDING 

The Healing Hubs is a registered charity in England and Wales.

Help Us Make a Difference

The Why?

The Healing Hubs Charity connects people and enables belonging through compassionate befriending. We believe everyone deserves to feel seen, valued, and supported, reducing loneliness and preventing crisis.


Many carry worry in silence. Invisible pressures can be constant, draining away energy and hope. Our befriending services are guided by listening, empathy, and steady presence.


We run on donations, grants, and fundraising, and every contribution helps us reach more people across England and Wales. Healing begins when someone steps into a space where they are welcomed, acknowledged, and reminded that they belong.


What we do

· Provide safe, low-pressure spaces for connection, by phone, in person, at home, or via virtual calls.

· Rebuild and nurture connections one gentle moment at a time.

· Support adults of all ages across England and Wales.


Why it matters

· So many live with silent burdens that can escalate without support.

· A simple act of friendship can reduce loneliness, build resilience, and prevent a crisis.


How you can help

· Donate to fund our befriending phoneline and community outreach.

· Donate goods or services to support our volunteers.

· Fundraise or host events to raise awareness and support.

· Volunteer your time or skills to expand our reach.


Get involved

· Follow us on Facebook for updates and stories of impact.

· Share our mission with friends, family, and colleagues.

Our Fundraising Vision

Essential Community Transport

Please support us in buying our own accessible minibus. 

Currently, we hire a minibus and a driver to enable our clients to come to our meeting places. This is not sustainable for a small charity which relies on donations, fundraising and grants to operate.

Many of our clients are living with financial instability, loneliness, isolation and disabilities. 

Our own mini bus would not only enable us to transport clients to our meeting places, but it would also enable us to provide day trips, use for fundraising and events.

Thank you so very much for your help.

About the History

The Healing Hubs Charity was founded in November 2022 and registered with the Charities Commission in England and Wales. 

Our registered office is in Alton, Hampshire. The charity provides befriending services designed to reduce loneliness and isolation through compassionate, person-centred support.


Core Values:


Compassion: Approaching every person with kindness and understanding Inclusion: Welcoming all voices and experiences

Accessibility: Ensuring easy access to support across phone, helpline, and in-person spaces

Respect: Listening without judgment and honouring dignity

Hope: Promoting optimism and resilience

Community: Building connections that reinforce belonging and mutual support

Responsibility: Recognising early signs of distress and guiding to appropriate help


Why Befriending Matters


Befriending acts as a significant intervention to reduce loneliness and isolation, serving as a crucial, non-clinical support system that lowers the risk of mental health crisis by providing companionship, emotional support, and enhanced social connection. Research indicates that regular, structured or informal companionship from trained volunteers helps reduce feelings of hopelessness, which are linked to self-harm and suicide.
