Lift Someone Out Of Loneliness launches today
As part of Better Health: Every Mind Matters, the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport have launched their next phase of Loneliness campaign activity.
Feeling lonely is something that all of us can experience at any point and it can have a huge impact on our wellbeing. It’s important to remember that these feelings can pass and that there are lots of ways we can help each other too.
This campaign will encourage people to ‘Lift Someone Out of Loneliness’, by carrying out small acts of kindness to help someone who may be feeling lonely, knowing that this is likely to help them feel less lonely too. Fancy a cuppa? Fancy a walk? Sometimes reaching out to each other with as little as three words can make a big difference.
