Better Health: Every Mind Matters Loneliness

All of us can experience loneliness at some point in our lives, and it can have a serious impact on our mental health. The important thing is to remember that these feelings can pass and there are many things we can do together to help each other.

Fancy a cuppa? Fancy a walk? Sometimes reaching out to each other with as little as three words can make a big difference.

As part of the Better Health: Every Mind Matters campaign, the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport are encouraging people to ‘Lift Someone Out of Loneliness’ by taking a simple action to help someone who may be feeling lonely. If we do this regularly, we can all help to lift each other up.
