The Corona Virus pandemic that we are seeing happening, not just here in the UK, but across the world, has had a dreadful impact on all of our lives and has seen us all have to make many changes to our day to day life. With the UK in almost complete lockdown, I personally found that being on my own I was missing my friends and family dreadfully. It was also becoming very evident that loneliness would likely be affecting many people, as it certainly was hitting me hard.
I took the decision to create this blog during the lockdown and I hope that it helps many people to know where and how best to keep in touch with people, find new friends, find love and ultimately reduce any potential loneliness.
