Feelings of isolation and loneliness have been heightened due to covid, especially amongst elderly people living alone. Alone Ireland has concluded that 55% of their callers struggling with isolation during the lockdown was over 70 and cocooning alone. It's great to see how Elder Home Share matches have been able to navigate through level 5 time together. Our matches at Elder Home Share help beat the lockdown loneliness for our elderly.

One match, in particular, has proven to be a source of inspiration and humour to everyone with their unique relationship and capacity to manage a difficult time with some good old fashioned laughter.
