Motion Text

That this House requests that the Government addresses the problem of Britain's elderly who are gripped by a loneliness epidemic by allocating funding to those charities and groups that work in the communities to ensure that there is no isolation of the elderly and that there is always someone available to whom they can talk or to whom they can depend.
