Written Answers
Loneliness: Rural Areas
Asked by: John Hayes (Conservative - South Holland and The Deepings)
Monday 22nd June 2026

Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, what steps her Department is taking to help reduce loneliness among older people in (a) Lincolnshire and (b) other rural areas.

Answered by Stephanie Peacock - Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State (Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport)

This Government is committed to supporting people at risk of loneliness, including older people in Lincolnshire, to have the social connections they need to thrive. Our ambition to strengthen positive social connections is a key part of achieving wider government objectives. My department has been working hard to ensure improving social connection and tackling loneliness is a golden thread which runs throughout government policy.

I was delighted to mark Loneliness Awareness Week last week and honour the legacy of our former colleague Jo Cox MP, attending the Loneliness Awareness Week launch in Parliament alongside the Great Parliamentary Great Together and Run for Jo in Birstall.

We know the challenges facing older people when it comes to social connection. Libraries, museums and heritage sites are vital community anchors, and we are investing £1.5 billion to save them, which could include supporting community groups to reduce social isolation and loneliness, social prescribing, community mental health provision and ageing well services.

This government funds the Tackling Loneliness Hub, an online community which enables people to connect across sectors to share insights and collaborate. The Hub frequently spotlights issues specific to different demographics, including rural loneliness. The Department for Environment Food and Rural Affairs is also supporting rural communities to address loneliness through its funding support for the modernisation and improvement of village halls which sit at the heart of rural life. Government has provided Action with Rural Communities in England (ACRE) with a grant of £1.7 million this financial year, which, amongst other important priorities, supports ACRE’s delivery of a practical advice and support service for communities to keep these spaces thriving.

Loneliness
Asked by: Kim Leadbeater (Labour - Spen Valley)
Thursday 30th October 2025

Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, what plans her Department has to update the loneliness strategy in the context of the Jo Cox Commission on Loneliness.

Answered by Stephanie Peacock - Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State (Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport)

The Government is committed to supporting people to have the social connections they need. Our ambition to strengthen social connection is a key part of achieving wider government work to create a healthier society, more connected communities and support young people. My department has been working hard to ensure social connection and loneliness are embedded in all government policy making, including the recently published Pride in Place strategy, the upcoming Men’s Health Strategy and National Youth Strategy.

In addition we are funding a project to develop the Tackling Loneliness Hub, which was set up to provide a forum for people working on loneliness to come together and share insights, research and best practice. My officials are exploring how the Hub can be made more accessible to the full range of people who work on loneliness, from healthcare professionals to volunteers, sports coaches to youth workers, researchers to policy makers.

1. Jenny Young (S7M-00180) The 10th Anniversary of the Death of Jo Cox That the Parliament acknowledges the 10th anniversary of the death of Jo Cox, who was murdered on 16 June 2016; notes that, until her death, Jo served as the Member of Parliament for Batley and Spen from May 2015; further notes that she was known as a passionate campaigner, activist and humanitarian; understands that her murder prompted a national conversation about the safety and security of elected representatives and the need for greater civility in politics; acknowledges that Jo has left a lasting legacy, including the Jo Cox Foundation, a charity that calls for more respect in politics, and The Great Get Together, an annual nationwide celebration centred on Jo’s message that “we have more in common than that which divides us”; celebrates the work of the Jo Cox Foundation, including the Jo Cox Women in Leadership Programme, which aims to support women in developing their skills and participating fully in public life; acknowledges that, in the decade since Jo’s murder, further acts of violence against elected representatives have occurred, including the murder of Sir David Amess in 2021, and notes the view that, as a new session of the Scottish Parliament begins, all MSPs should commit to fostering a more respectful political culture and remember that they have more in common than that which divides them.
