Loneliness Awareness Week 2024

Join us in making a difference during Loneliness Awareness Week!

From 10th June to 16th June, we have a series of inspiring activities planned all over the borough to help forge stronger bonds within our community. Let’s connect, learn, and grow together. Your involvement can transform everyday encounters into a lifeline for those feeling isolated.

This year's theme, "Random Act of Connection," invites each of us to combat loneliness through simple, meaningful interactions. Whether it's saying hello to a neighbour, joining a community coffee morning, or participating in engaging workshops, every small act contributes to a larger change.

Be part of the change — every interaction counts!
