To assist the most disadvantaged in society to fulfil their potential by building connections and developing opportunities…
we will help improve the quality and coherence of services for individuals facing multiple needs and exclusions through support of the Making Every Adult Matter coalition (latest Progress Report available here) and its work to help local areas design and deliver coordinated service interventions;
we will support connections for older people and across generations, including through measures which tackle loneliness in older age, in particular the Campaign to End Loneliness to advocate nationally and locally their key message that loneliness is a health issue; we will also review and consult with others on our work on ageing to ensure that we create solutions that are fair for all ages and help people to manage difficult transitions.
