Leicestershire County Council Tackling Loneliness Campaign

3rd January 2019

The county council is spearheading a new campaign aimed at reducing loneliness and social isolation.

‘Within Your Gift to Give’ is running on social media channels, such as Twitter and Facebook, and encourages people to take simple steps to reduce their own feelings of loneliness, or those of other people.

The campaign follows on from a highly-successful summit in November, co-hosted by the council and the University of Leicester’s Unit for Diversity, Inclusion and Community Engagement (DICE).

The summit brought together partners in the public, voluntary, business and education sectors to better understand the impact of loneliness.
