There are many people who are isolated from families and friends. Lonely people can become susceptible to those who might manipulate them. Spare a thought for the lonely.
With King Charles informing Prince Andrew that he is not invited to any of the Royal family Christmas parties and events, he will be alone like many other people. Loneliness is often more keenly felt at Christmas, being the time of year when families and friends come together.
There are many organisations helping to combat loneliness. For more active people there are many organisations that would appreciate extra volunteers over the festive season. Local organisations giving support for the homeless are always looking for extra help at this time of year and will welcome most people.
