OF THE SOLUTION
We believe that everyone can help to tackle loneliness and isolation - and by joining forces, we can support each other to make a difference.
The Feeling Connected Network is dedicated to creating more opportunities for social connection in our communities.
It's made up of all kinds of amazing people from across Chesterfield and North-East Derbyshire.
Anyone can join in, whether you're organising activities in your community or just want to support local efforts in some way.
