Abstract
Dr Sue Wilbraham, PhD, CPsychol SFHEA, Associate Professor in Environment, Health and Wellbeing, University of Cumbria, gave this webinar exploring the findings from a recent evaluation of a community-driven loneliness initiative in Barrow-in-Furness, Cumbria. Delivered through the ‘Furness for You’ partnership – a collaboration of ten local organisations supported by the ‘Know Your Neighbourhood’ fund – this initiative aims to reduce social isolation by building stronger, more connected communities.
What to expect:
Real-life experiences from participants
Key barriers and successes in engaging the community
Measured impact on loneliness and isolation
Practical lessons for future programmes – from communication and engagement to outcomes tracking and relationship-building.
