New animation and podcast mini-series for Tackling Loneliness and Social Isolation elearning

The Tackling Loneliness and Social Isolation programme highlights how health and social care staff and the wider public health workforce can recognise risk factors, risk groups and apply simple interventions that can make a positive impact.

This elearning highlights the impact of chronic loneliness as a serious health concern and how we can all help to tackle loneliness with the interactions we have with patients and the public. It supports the call to action from the Jo Cox Commission to ‘equip people with information about the potential triggers for loneliness and ensure they know where to go for support’.

The course has been updated with animations and a podcast mini-series that can help further explain this topic and provide alternative support options.
