I am supporting The Jo Cox Foundation’s Great Winter Get Together which is taking place this week encouraging people to have conversations about loneliness. The theme of this year’s campaign is ‘there’s no shame in sharing’.
As part of the campaign, I am asking Moorlanders of all ages to think of someone who could be feeling lonely. It could be a neighbour, a friend, a relative, perhaps someone who lives on their own or someone you have not seen for a while.
Let’s all try to make an extra phone call or video call to say hello and check they are ok, pop a note or a child’s picture or hand designed card through their door or invite them round for a cup of tea or coffee.
If we all make an extra effort this week, just think how many smiles we will put on people’s faces.
