Loneliness Awareness Week
June 15 - June 21
This week is #LonelinessAwarenessWeek, where the aim is to shine a spotlight on the importance of talking openly about #Loneliness.
By talking about it, we can reduce the stigma surrounding this natural human emotion, and by hosting a connection activity we can create a sense of belonging and reduce loneliness in our communities.
Connection matters.
It’s what makes us human.
Whether it’s your regular barista, the friendly dog on your walk, or the shopkeeper down the road, everyday moments of connection matter. They allow us to make connections, feel happier and less lonely.
Meeting Loneliness Together, this year’s theme, is all about reducing the stigma around this natural human emotion.
The campaign has reached millions across the world through conversations on social media and partnerships. #LonelinessAwarenessWeek has trended and hundreds of organisations, charities and individuals get involved including the Royal Family, the Prime Minister and the NHS!
