WHO WE ARE

We are an One-Stop-Shop across the UK, united under one umbrella, in Our Dedication to the BAME Communities' empowerment.

Research shows that social isolation and loneliness are increasingly being recognised as public health and policy issues. As many define it, loneliness is feeling alone, regardless of the amount of social contact an individual may have. Social isolation is a lack of social connections, leading to loneliness in some people, while others can feel lonely without being socially isolated. Available evidence shows that loneliness and social isolation are associated with higher risks for severe health conditions such as heart disease, depression and poor cognitive function. The covid-19 pandemic and lockdown forcefully made us aware of isolation and loneliness because feeling connected with other people is a basic need like we need food. Our organisation is therefore bringing people together so that they can be connected to combat loneliness and social isolation because we need one another to survive and thrive. Therefore, we argue that our community’s social events and links are essential to our overall mental, physical, and general health well-being. We also believe it is crucial to understand how social isolation and loneliness are social determinant factors of health affecting their quality of life and should not be ignored.
