Sally Magnusson's Playlist For Life and our Big Braw Community are encouraging families to share their favourite music and get Scotland singing to tackle loneliness.
Scotland is renowned for being a friendly nation, so why are so many people feeling isolated? Around one in ten people suffer from loneliness and we think that is far too high.
That’s why we want to establish Scotland’s Big Braw Community.
We are calling for politicians, businesses, charities and individuals to unite in a bid to halve chronic loneliness by 2030. We have already held a round table event at the Scottish Parliament, bringing together many of the nation’s most influential people.
All have backed our bid – and we will be outlining many more strands to our campaign in the weeks and months to come. We will also let you know how YOU can play your part.
