on Tackling Loneliness and Connected Communities
Intergenerational England proudly serves as the Secretariat for the All-Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) on Tackling Loneliness and Connected Communities, supporting Parliamentarians to explore bold, cross-sector solutions that address one of the most pressing social challenges of our time.
Through this APPG, we convene MPs, peers, young people, older people, researchers and community leaders to spotlight policy gaps, amplify lived experience and share innovative, evidence-based practice across health, housing, education, culture and social care.
Our work includes
-
Coordinating inquiry sessions, roundtables, and briefings that shape national dialogue and inform government policy.
-
Showcasing impactful grassroots and intergenerational approaches to connection and belonging.
-
Championing the role of creativity, social infrastructure, and community power in reducing loneliness across all ages.
By bridging practice and policy, Intergenerational England ensures that connection is recognised as a national priority not just for older adults, but for every generation.
