Sometimes it can feel easier to help someone else who may be feeling lonely. There are lots of simple actions that you can do to help, including:
Checking in with a family member, friend or neighbour by sending a text or giving them a call to see how they are doing.
Reaching out to someone to suggest catching up over a tea or coffee
Inviting someone to join you in getting some fresh air and going for a walk.
In taking one of these actions, you could lift someone out of loneliness, and it might help you feel less lonely too.
