As the festive season approaches, a significant initiative is underway to combat social isolation across Staffordshire and Cheshire. Fifty pubs, cafes, and community centers are participating in a special Christmas coffee morning event designed to foster connection and community spirit.
These gatherings are organized by Reaching CIC, an organization dedicated to bringing people together and alleviating loneliness.

The initiative addresses the increasing prevalence of loneliness, a concern amplified by recent events and the general pressures of the holiday period. By offering a welcoming space for socializing, these coffee mornings aim to make a tangible difference in people's lives.
