Loneliness, living alone and poor social connections are as bad for your health as smoking 15 cigarettes a day. #ThingsThatAreBadForYourHealth #EndLoneloneliness

We all love getting a #Christmas Card. This year, give your a neighbour a knock and deliver it by hand. It's a great way to get to know your neighbour, and could make a huge difference to the millions of people who spend the festive period on their own. #EndLoneliness

Small moments of connection, like saying 'hello', are proven to make a big difference to people who are #lonely. Christmas is a great excuse to start a chat. It could be someone down your street who you see everyday. You can help #EndLoneliness this #Christmas

Almost half of us say that our busy lives stop us from connecting with others. The #clocksgoback tomorrow. So use the extra hour to connect. Phone your grandparents. Talk to your neighbour. Say hello to someone at the shop. Use the hour to #BeMoreUs bemoreus.org.uk

It's #WorldMentalHealthDay. Loneliness impacts upon mental health. If you know someone is feeling lonely, make time for them. Even a small moment of connection - a chat, a coffee, saying hello at the bus stop - can make a big difference #BeMoreUs #EndLoneliness

In this snowy weather older people are being advised to stay indoors. But if they live alone, they may not see or speak to anyone until the snow passes. If you have an older neighbour who might be alone check in on them #EndLoneliness #StormEmma #Snow #snowday2018
