Feeling lonely is something that all of us can experience at any point in our lives, which can have negative impacts on our health and wellbeing.

There are lots of simple actions that you can do to help others who may be feeling lonely this #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek, including:

• Giving a friend or family member a call
• Inviting someone for a walk
• Reaching out to a friend for a cuppa

You might find that reaching out to someone else could help you to feel less lonely too.
