500 Suffolk Reasons

20/02/2026

Good morning everyone! Will this gloomy weather ever end?
Whilst this endless rain and the grey skies can affect everyone, it’s particularly hard to bear if you are struggling to make ends meet. We are receiving more nominations than ever before and we desperately need more members!
£500 can be a game changer in the situations we are presented with and it’s a privilege to be able to help. But we need to grow!
It’s just £1 a week to become a member. What can you buy with £1? It isn’t even a coffee , but those £1s added together have the power to make a difference and to make someone struggling, feel seen, heard and valued!
It’s so easy to join, just a direct debit to land with us each Monday.
Random Acts of Kindness have a ‘day’ each year but it shouldn’t just be a day, it should be a way of life!! £1 every Monday is a weekly RAK and truly makes such a difference!

Super busy with nominations recently. Thankfully we have been able to say yes to every one so far. But they are coming faster and we need more members paying £1 a week so we can continue to meet the requests.
Every nomination is deserving, some are utterly heartbreaking!
If you have been thinking of signing up, please just do it. We need you! Helping others in this way is so rewarding and it’s only £1 a week!
All the sign up info is on the ABOUT section of this page. Or email us at [email protected]

A report issued by the World Health Organisation in June 2025 revealed that 100 people die of loneliness every hour, 870,000 deaths a year……..just from loneliness…..no one caring about them. Utterly heartbreaking.
One of the most important aspects of 500Suffolk Reasons is showing how do you shut up? A pair of trousers are not gonna go out just get Barrett people there’s nobody there that we care. It matters as much as the donation itself. When recipients ask how they can repay the kindness, we tell them to simply pay it forward.
I’m sure they do too, in whatever way they can.

This is such a rewarding group to be part of.

Do join us!

This landmark report from the WHO Commission on Social Connection highlights that social isolation and loneliness are widespread, with serious but under-recognized impacts on health, well-being, and society. Drawing on the latest evidence, the report makes a compelling case for urgent action. It out...

Hi All. I’ve just sent a catch up email out and had a number of undelivered messsges back. This might be because you have a work address and have changed jobs. Could you update me if you didn’t get the email?

Many thanks.

Hello there

Thanks for dropping by. Are you thinking of joining us? I really hope you do. We need all the members we can possibly get! The need has never been greater and remember this is all ( nearly, we do have some lovely members who aren’t) local people caring about helping fellow local people. It’s very special and it feels great when you know you’ve made a real difference.

All the joining info is in the ‘About’ section of this page. Any questions, just drop us a message.

Many thanks

Ann
