Event: Social Isolation & Loneliness Consultation at FACT offices, Forres, 12th March, 2-4pm

A new national strategy, one of the first in the world, is being developed to tackle loneliness and isolation.

The draft plan, now open for consultation, will look at the causes of social isolation and loneliness and how they can be addressed.

Views are also being sought on how communities can build on the work of the Scottish Government, and lead on ensuring those at risk of becoming lonely or isolated have access to the right support networks.

As a part of this process FACT in Forres are hosting a ‘Social Isolation and Loneliness Consultation’ on 12th March from 2-4pm.

For more information please contact Kirsty Williams Older Person’s Project Coordinator kirsty@forresarea.org
