January Sparks Increased Loneliness Among Elderly: Here’s How To Help

January Sparks Increased Loneliness Among Elderly: Here’s How To Help
“I go into a cafe, but people don’t always speak to you. People don’t see you, because you’re old.”

Chitra, 76, is just one of thousands of elderly people in the UK who feel lonely.

Social isolation can be devastating at any time of the year, but new data from Contact the Elderly suggests the loneliness epidemic is particularly acute in January.

The number of socially isolated older people who reach out to the charity for support increases over winter. In the past three years, enquiries increased by an average of 86% between December and January.

Chitra chose to star in the short film above, alongside Harry (93) and June (76), to raise awareness about the impact of loneliness and encourage the public to do more to help.

The film, titled ‘Break the Silence’, comes a day after Tracey Crouch was made the first ever minister for loneliness to help tackle the widespread problem.

Contact the Elderly organises free monthly Sunday afternoon tea parties for small groups of older people, aged 75 or over who live alone, offering regular interaction and vital friendship links.

The majority (73%) of tea party guests say they feel less lonely as a result of their involvement with Contact the Elderly and 95% of guests say the tea parties give them something to look forward to.

The meet-ups provide a vital opportunity for social interaction for isolated people like Harry, who feels people are too busy to make time for the elderly.

“Life’s changed, it’s so much faster today,” the 93-year-old says in the film.

“Nobody would bother to say ‘good morning’ to you or anything like that. But years ago, there’d be time to talk to you.”

The charity is expecting a high level of calls to continue throughout January and is asking for the public’s support to fund the introduction of 120 new tea party groups across the country to meet this need. 

Cliff Rich, CEO of Contact the Elderly, says: “Most families get together over the Christmas period, but contact tends to drop off in January.

 “This is a sad reality, but the cure for loneliness is relatively simple – friendship, connection and conversation. Our monthly tea parties are a lifeline for thousands of socially isolated older people across the UK.”

The charity also offers the following tips for connecting with socially isolated older people in your community to end loneliness:

1. Break the silence. Older people often feel ignored and invisible in public. When you are out and about, keep an eye out for older people who are alone and might appreciate a chat. Socially isolated older people will often go a day or more without any contact so the conversation that you start may be the only one they have that day.

2. Donate to charities that work with older people. Contact the Elderly organise free monthly tea parties for people over the age of 75 who live alone for over 6,000 older people every year. They are looking to launch 120 more groups so that more older people can be supported.

3. Volunteer. Contact the Elderly is supported by a team of over 10,000 volunteers who help to fight loneliness in their communities, and they are always looking for more, particularly drivers to help with vital transport. Research online for other charities where you can volunteer to support lonely older people.

4. Call in on an older neighbour to see how they are. Especially in winter months or if you know they have little or no family nearby.

5. Talk to an older person about the support that is available.

Aetna to Pay $17 Million to Customers it Violated by Disclosing HIV Status

Aetna will pay more than $17 million to settle a class action lawsuit filed after it sent letters which disclosed customers’ HIV status through a window on the envelope.

Approximately 12,000 customers in 23 states were affected by the privacy breach.

CNN reports:

Under the terms of the proposed settlement, which is now subject to court approval, Aetna has agreed to pay $17,161,200 to resolve the privacy breach claims.

That money will be used to send an automatic base payment of at least $500 to those whose privacy was breached by the large-windowed envelopes.

An automatic base payment of $75 will be provided to about 1,600 additional customers whose health information was allegedly disclosed to Aetna’s legal counsel and mail vendor.

It will also provide customers an opportunity to seek additional payments for out-of-pocket expenses or emotional distress damages, said Ronda Goldfein, executive director of the AIDS Law Project of Pennsylvania, which filed the lawsuit along with the Legal Action Center and Berger & Montague P.C.

Henry Bolton Spotted Having Intimate Dinner With Ex Jo Marney Just Days After Claiming Romance Is Over

Henry Bolton Spotted Having Intimate Dinner With Ex Jo Marney Just Days After Claiming Romance Is Over
Under-fire Ukip leader Henry Bolton had an intimate dinner with an ex-girlfriend who made racist and derogatory comments about Meghan Markle tonight – just days after claiming their relationship was over.

The anti-Brexit campaigner was seen giving kisses on the cheeks to Jo Marney while the pair dined in the exclusive National Liberal Club in the heart of Westminster.

In leaked text messages published by the Mail on Sunday, Marney reportedly said Markle would “taint” the Royal Family, that she had a “tiny brain” and that black people were ugly.

As the pair left the club on Wednesday evening, Bolton launched a staunch defence of Marney, claiming she had been “exploited by my political enemies” and the controversy over her remarks was being to “fade away.”

One club member remarked it did not seem like the pair were no longer an item as they enjoyed a meal while overlooking the River Thames and taking in the view of the London Eye and the South Bank.

The pair left the club together just after 9.30pm, where HuffPost UK asked the Ukip leader whether the pair had rekindled their romance.

Bolton said: “I’ve just given an interview to somebody else today so just coordinating. Jo’s had some death threats against her today and so she wanted to speak to me about that. She’s now going back to Maidstone and I’m now going back home.”

The former soldier, who was only elected Ukip leader four months ago, vowed to stay on in his role, despite members of his party resigning their frontbench roles in protest at his leadership.

Bolton left his wife for Marney – a move which some claimed went against the ‘family man’ image he put forward in last year’s leadership contest.

When asked by HuffPost UK if even maintaining a friendship with Marney undermines his position as leader, Bolton replied: “I said very clearly what’s happened in the last weeks or so has actually starting to fade away now.

“There’s going to be more news coming out tomorrow in relation to how some of this information was obtained and the fact that some of it was doctored before it was published.

“These are facts that are going to out there in the coming hours so I’ve said very publicly that although the romantic side of our relationship is now over I’m supporting Jo and her family in trying to put things back together again – absolutely.

“What’s happened is that a young woman has been effectively exploited by my political enemies who feel they can’t challenge me in open political debate on my leadership and on my politics.

“What I’d say to them is: you want to challenge my leadership, you want to challenge my politics, do it in an open forum, do it openly, do not do it covertly and exploit anybody in doing so because to do so is explicable, particularly the way they’ve gone about it.”
