Together, we can change that. Residents of Greenwich told us that they want more help to build connection and community, and we are listening.
Your donation will fund resident-led projects that bring people together and create lasting connections. This could be a theatre project engaging young people, a gardening group that gets older people out of the house, or an arts and crafts clubs that creates community for disabled people.
Your donation will ensure that somebody in Greenwich feels a little less lonely this season.
Too many people in the Borough are unable to speak about getting help for loneliness. We need more activities and clubs.
We asked hundreds of Greenwich residents what issue they'd like us to focus on, and the answer was clear.
Loneliness and isolation affects people of all ages and all backgrounds. People who are already vulnerable - due to poverty, disability or discrimination - are even more likely to struggle.
100% of donations will go directly to community-led projects in Greenwich.
What's more, local people will help to decide how every pound is spent, ensuring your gift tackles loneliness where it's needed most.
There are far too many people who feel isolated whether because of age, health issues or money issues.
I see first hand the effect that [loneliness] has on people.
