how can we help?

We help people to maintain and create personal connections in their later life. We draw on research and inspiration from across the country to offer information and ideas to both individuals and those working with older people. We deliver projects and campaigns with a range of other organisations. Together, we aim to end loneliness in older age.

We’ll share ideas here with those who want to help in their local community to reduce and end loneliness, whether you know someone who is older and lonely, or want to help out in your local community. We’ll also share information with those working with and for older people. Any organisation can become a partner of the Campaign; visit our supporters page to find out how. We are seeking to work with the media to reach more people in our work. We aim to work with government bodies to enhance their work in this area across a range of policies. We also have information for those who may be feeling the effects of loneliness.

Available from 1st February 2011, our launch publication “

” outlines the issue of loneliness. In it we identify what actions could be taken by a range of people and organisations who we invite to work with us to end loneliness.
