No one should feel alone
Loneliness and isolation can not only increase stress and mental health problems but it can affect our wellbeing in many other ways. As an MP, I have been passionate about connecting our communities and bringing people together, especially older residents.
Across Tamworth and the villages there is a growing network of local community groups providing our communities with places where all people can meet with others and have a chat over a cuppa - Places of Welcome UK
I recently popped into the Tamworth Baptist Church in Belgrave to meet volunteer, Fran and speak with local residents. There are Places of Welcome coffee mornings taking place in most areas.
