A big thanks to Younger Neighbours Stacey, Jane, Kelly, and Michelle for helping the Outreach team with leafleting in Barnsbury, Kingâs Cross and Somers Town. If youâd like to do the same in your neighbourhood then get in touch with us at: [email protected]





At last weekâs Jazz club Jreena Jreena Green took us on a journey in time through jazz. We Charleston-ed our way through the 1920âs, swung through the 30âs and rocked through the 50âs!




#OnThisDay in 2011, North London Cares and what became The Cares Family started bringing neighbours together. We are proud of the work we did over the next 12 years to build connection, community, and a sense of belonging in times of change:


Loneliness is a personal crisis, a public health crisis, and a political crisis. But there is strong evidence on how it can be tackled, and how a thousand flowers of connection can bloom. Learn about the impact of our work via Shorenstein Center: shorensteincenter.org/commentary/lonâŠ

âThis community experience is unbelievable. I've started writing. I'm on my third play. I didn't know I had it in me.â Congrats Hampstead Theatre for this wonderful work reducing loneliness in bustling Camden, one of the loneliest boroughs in the country: bbc.co.uk/news/articles/âŠ


Thanks to Marmalade Trust, #LonelinessAwarenessWeek has grown into a global movement. 5,000 activities are scheduled in the UK, the US, Estonia and Malaysia to help people talk about this ânormal human emotion that signals a need for social connection.' www-bbc-co-uk.cdn.ampproject.org/c/s/www.bbc.coâŠ
