Loneliness Awareness Week 2025 takes place from 9th-15th June. We all feel lonely at times – it’s a natural human emotion. We’re biologically wired for social contact, and loneliness is our signal that we need more.
You don’t have to be on your own to feel lonely – you might feel lonely in a relationship or while spending time with friends or family, on social media, in a city or in at university. You can feel lonely if you feel like you are not being acknowledged or understood by those around you.
