Loneliness Awareness week – 9th-15th June

Loneliness Awareness Week 2025 takes place from 9th-15th June, presenting a valuable opportunity to address the growing concern of loneliness. This year’s theme, “Meeting Loneliness Together,” emphasises reducing the stigma around this natural human emotion and encourages collective efforts to foster connections.

Why This Matters:

If loneliness is very severe or lasts a long time, it might increase the risk of some physical conditions such as dementia and mental health conditions such as stress, anxiety, low mood or depression.

How You Can Participate:

If you are planning to mark Loneliness Awareness Week in your social channels, you can find useful resources, aimed at a 16-24 year old audience, on the Campaign Resource Centre. As a call to action you might link to content on Better Health: Every Mind Matters.
