Giving a Little Comfort This Christmas

As we enter the festive season, many of us look forward to comforting meals, warm gatherings, and moments shared with loved ones. At Parsley Box, this time of year always reminds us of the importance of community, kindness, and supporting one another, especially when winter brings extra challenges for some families.

That’s why, this December, we’re proud to be partnering with Edinburgh Community Food, an organisation dedicated to improving access to healthy, nutritious food for people across Edinburgh.

Why Edinburgh Community Food matters

Edinburgh Community Food works closely with individuals and families who may be struggling to put regular meals on the table. But their support goes far beyond providing food.

They run a range of programmes that include:

• Food education to help people understand what healthy eating can look like
• Cooking skills workshops that empower individuals to prepare balanced, budget-friendly meals
• Support that helps build confidence, independence, and long-term healthier futures

Their team works closely within the community, offering practical help and compassionate guidance during difficult times.

This is why we’re honoured to support their work this Christmas.

At Parsley Box, our mission has always been to make good, comforting food accessible and easy for everyone, especially older adults, carers, and anyone who needs convenience without compromising on quality. We believe nutritious meals should be within reach for everyone, and that good food brings comfort, dignity, and reassurance during stressful times.

How you can join us

Throughout December, when you add a charity meal to your Parsley Box order for £4.95, we’ll match your donation meal for meal. So for every meal donated, we’ll add another, and together these meals will go into food boxes shared with someone who could use a bit of extra comfort this winter.

Your kindness will help fill community food boxes with hearty, nutritious Parsley Box meals, giving families something warm and reassuring at a time when it’s needed most.

Whether it’s a parent trying to stretch their weekly shop, an older adult facing isolation, or someone simply going through a tough patch, your donation can make a genuine difference.

A little warmth goes a long way

We believe that good food brings comfort, and comfort is something everyone deserves, especially at Christmas. By choosing to add a charity meal to your order, you’re helping us spread warmth, care, and nourishment.

Together, we hope to make this festive season a little brighter for families who need extra support. Thank you for joining us in giving a little comfort this December.

Terms & Conditions

For every charity meal added to your order for £4.95, Parsley Box will donate a matching meal to Edinburgh Community Food. Donations are in the form of Parsley Box ready meals and not monetary contributions. This campaign runs from 01/12/25 – 31/12/25.
