I want to set up a charity to help combat loneliness in elderly people.
I know there are many organisations out there who offer help via telephone conversations/ meetings etc but there seems to still be such a big problem, I am trying to set up something slightly different involving students and longterm pairing.
Do you know of any senior citizens who are alone and lonely?
If you are elderly and lonely why don't you reach out for help? Is it out of pride? Is that the 'help' offered out there isn't what you are looking for?
Thank you so much for your input!
