Welcome to Just4one – the one stop source of information for single people
…although perhaps more correctly it should be called just4 28 million+!

Just4one is the all-in-one resource designed to empower and help inform single people everywhere.

Ever feel alone, isolated, or overlooked just because you’re single? Just4one is the community for you. While there are more than 28 million single people in England and Wales alone (as of 2023), it can sometimes feel like you’re the only one, struggling to survive in a world seemingly built for couples and traditional two parent families.

I know how you feel. As a single person myself, I’ve experienced the same challenges as you. I’ve had to navigate the cost of being single, figuring out how to survive on a single income, raise a family, and maintain my independence, even in spite of the growing “singles tax”.- the cost you bear  for not having a partner. (Singletons end up paying all of their housing costs and bills, leaving them often far worse off than if they had another half)

I’ve dealt with the nerve-wracking process of applying for a mortgage without a partner, and discovered just how challenging it can be to explore the world solo.

That’s why I created just4one, as a one-stop source of great ideas, inspiration, and useful information, tailored specifically for single people. Here, you’ll find not just guidance and information, but thoughtful insights, and the opportunity for a voice and community dedicated to you.

Being single can be wonderful, ….and it can be challenging, but whether your single status is temporary, permanent, planned or otherwise, you don’t have to go through life on your own.

Just4one is here to help you not just survive the single life –  but thrive in it.

What to Expect from Just4one

Just4one is a fully independent resource for single people. Whether your single status is temporary or permanent, planned or otherwise there’s a whole bunch of good reasons why you might be looking for ‘information for one‘…

Some of you may be surprised or regretful to find yourself single and some may be what’s called “Living apart together”. That’s being half of a couple but deciding to live in your own home….. and perhaps your own interests.  (And to add to all that, people normally part of a couple but who choose to holiday independently).

We’re confident that this will grow to be a great resource for you all.

The single community is huge! and it deserves just as much support as couples get. Yet the online world is often lacking real understanding and content crafted for the single person. That’s where we step in.

Here you’ll find:

• Travel & Travel Tips: Insights from my own travel experiences, advice, and information about holiday companies that don’t charge single supplements.
• Social & Leisure Ideas: Enjoy your freedom and have some fun as a single person! Learn how to meet new people, make new friends, and make the most of your time.
• Food and drink for One: Shopping on a budget, cooking and recipe ideas for one, and insightful tips for foodies.
• Finance Tips: Budgeting strategies, discount options for single people, insights into the ‘Single Tax’, and tips for helping you to make your money go further.
• Home and Housing: Finding a new place, (what we call the Single Housing Challenge),  keeping your old place, keeping your costs down amongst ever rising housing costs.

Sometimes, there seems to be a bit of unfairness going on out there, so we may have a bit of a rant on your behalf from time to time. If there’s anything you think we should know about the challenges of being single, or anything you’d like to see more of on this site, please reach out! Plus, don’t forget to share this resource with your friends.

Together we’ll navigate the choppy waters of single life, and even have a little fun.
