#Loneliness is one of the largest social issues we face today and it affects people of all ages. Come debate with us, can #EarlyYears be the bridge to help combat loneliness & isolation in local communities? Tickets still available: bit.ly/2BPYHgv

Well done to our fabulous @schronker who completed a half marathon at the weekend 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻Congrats to you- what a great achievement.
We did it. I hurt. 2h45m. It was worth it to raise money for @gbchospice - it’s not too late to support me - justgiving.com/fundraising/j…

Kharlie is my marathon trek partner. She has two fab kids as well. My toes are still recovering from their 15 mile (should have been 10) ordeal.

Another way #hospices are supporting #MentalHealth is through the @Compneighbours programme. Started by @StJoHospice, it has trained hundreds of volunteers and tackled loneliness and isolation: hospiceuk.org/what-we-offer/… #WorldMentalHealthDay #HospiceCareWeek #WhatItTakes

"@Compneighbours is an expression of spirituality in the community. Spirituality is often linked with a search for meaning; it can involve actions but the focus is on the things you can’t see, experiences of love, health & peace." Maria, former volunteer
