This Loneliness Awareness Week, we're recognising the volunteers who make room for connection every day through their compassion, empathy and support.

Connection can take many forms.
Sometimes it's a conversation with a friend. Sometimes it's an invitation to join in. And sometimes it's knowing there's someone willing to listen without judgement.

If you need support, call Lifeline anytime on 13 11 14, or text us on 0477 13 11 14, or visit
lifeline.org.au for our online chat service or for resources to self-manage what you’re going through. All our crisis support services are available 24/7.

How confident are you in recognising and responding to loneliness in children and young people?

Loneliness is about more than being alone. It can affect a child's sense of belonging, wellbeing and mental health, influencing how they engage with family, friends, school and community.

For practitioners, understanding the drivers and impacts of loneliness can help strengthen relationships, build trust and support better outcomes for children and families.

To mark Loneliness Awareness Week, tune in to a recent Emerging Minds Podcast featuring researcher Dr Ben Lohmeyer and youth advocate Amber Brock-Fabel. Together, they explore what loneliness looks like for young people in Australia and share insights that can help inform everyday practice.

If you support children, young people or families, this conversation is well worth a listen.
