2021 has been another difficult year as we all come to terms with living with the Coronavirus and the associated challenges it poses upon our everyday lives. One of the most significant challenges is the ever-increasing level of loneliness and isolation, particularly experienced over the festive period. A situation that our colleagues at Age UK are responding to, offering support to those in need.
If you or anyone you know is experiencing loneliness at this time, please do not hesitate to contact one of our partner organisations for support. You can either contact Age UK Lincoln and South Lincolnshire on 03455 564 144 or Age UK Lindsey on 01507 524242. Together, they offer a wide range of support services in the places in which we provide homes.
Age UK Lincolnshire and South Lincolnshire have also produced a guidance to help understand the circumstances associated with feeling lonely. The report helps to explain what we know works in supporting people to tackle feelings of persistent loneliness.
