How to Get in Touch With Marriage Care or Get Involved

Updated

Marriage Care's website (marriagecare.org.uk) is the starting point for booking relationship counselling, arranging marriage preparation, or applying to volunteer. The site states that services are offered both online and in person at local centres across the UK, and that sessions are affordable with flexible fees, so no one is turned away for financial reasons. The site does not publish a phone number, email address, or booking form in the material available here, so the practical route is to use the relevant section of the website itself.

Booking relationship counselling

Marriage Care describes counselling for couples and individuals who want to strengthen, repair, or better understand their relationship. It is open to couples who are married, living together, or in a long-term partnership, and the charity says it welcomes people of faith or none.

  • Who it's for: couples counselling and individual sessions.
  • What it covers: communication breakdowns, growing conflict, or simply feeling distant; the stated aims are rebuilding trust and improving understanding.
  • Where it happens: online or face-to-face at local centres across the UK.
  • Cost: described as affordable, with flexible fees. The site does not list specific prices, so treat the fee as something to confirm when you make contact.

To start, go to the Relationship Counselling section of the site and follow the route it offers for enquiries or booking. Because no contact details are given in the available material, check that page for the current method rather than assuming a phone or email option exists.

Arranging marriage preparation

Marriage preparation is a separate service aimed at couples preparing for married life, not just the wedding day. The site says the sessions are especially suitable for couples marrying in the Catholic Church, and that they give couples time away from wedding planning to explore their relationship, learn skills, and understand the vows and promises they will make.

Options described include:

Format Notes
Group sessions Run across the UK
One-to-one programmes Tailored, available by webcam or in person

Trained facilitators guide whichever route you choose. If you want to book, use the Marriage Preparation section of the website and look for its sign-up or enquiry route.

Volunteering with Marriage Care

The site has a dedicated Volunteer with us section plus a Volunteer vacancies listing. If you want to get involved rather than use a service, that is where to look: browse current vacancies and follow the application steps given there. The available material does not specify roles, time commitments, or training requirements, so check the vacancy listings for those details.

Finding news and updates

A Latest News section on the homepage carries current announcements. It is worth checking if you want to know about service changes, new locations, or recruitment drives before you make contact.

What to confirm before you commit

  • Fees: the site says flexible fees and no one turned away for financial reasons, but publishes no figures — ask about cost when you enquire.
  • Availability: online and in-person options exist, but local centre coverage and waiting times are not stated in the available material.
  • Contact method: no phone number or email is given here, so rely on the website's own sections to reach the organisation.
