Loneliness can have a huge impact on our wellbeing, but there are lots of simple actions you can take to help lift yourself or others out of loneliness.

Following the success of last year’s national campaign, which saw some very positive steps towards people taking action to help feelings of loneliness, the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport will be launching their 6 week loneliness campaign activity on 30th January as part of the Better Health – Every Mind Matters campaign.

At Wem Rural Parish Council we appreciate that some local residents suffer from loneliness and are therefore actively taking part in this campaign and we will be spreading this important message across out website and social media channels.

Please get in touch if you would like to get involved in this or other campaign.

You can read more about the campaign here.
