Loneliness is a public health crisis - and we’re taking action 💔

The Scottish Forum on Isolation and Loneliness has launched a manifesto calling on the next Scottish Government to make tackling loneliness a national priority.

This year the Forum, co-facilitated by Befriending Networks and Chest Heart & Stroke Scotland (CHSS), has engaged with more than 120 organisations across the country as it lays out its vision to cut chronic loneliness by half over the next decade. 🤝
Why?

1 in 5 adults in Scotland experience loneliness
Disabled people are twice as likely to feel lonely, and 41% of single pensioners felt lonely last week
Loneliness harms health, wellbeing, and communities

We’re urging bold leadership, long-term investment, and collaboration at every level from the next Scottish Government to build a more socially connected Scotland.
