Loneliness is a serious problem. It can even lead to people dying earlier because of smoking and drinking more alcohol than usual, and poor mental health can lead to self-harm.
We need to do something to reduce the number of people who are feeling lonely or isolated, and how bad it can be for them.
We are working alongside IVAR, the research charity, to investigate ways to reduce loneliness and are seeking your views. Can you help us by completing the electronic questionnaire: https://forms.office.com/e/LR6VAwWigQ
In return you will be entered into a free draw to have a chance to win a £50 voucher.
If you could also help by sharing these questionnaires amongst people you know, your family and friends? This would really help us in our work. If you would prefer paper versions, or an electronic version in Word, please just ask gill@haltonsthelensvca.org.uk
