Companionship Care
Promoting social outings and tackling loneliness
Loneliness is a vicious circle and over time it can lead to becoming disconnected from society and the community. Once someone starts to feel lonely it can be incredibly difficult to make the necessary changes to prevent how they feel. This is why it is so important to intervene before loneliness kicks in.
