“ARE YOU LONELY?”

It was never going to be an easy question to ask…

But here at the Staying Well Hub we’re not afraid of difficult questions.

We know it’s down to all of us; shopkeepers, plumbers, housing officers, librarian and pub landlords to to find ways to broach the subject with family, neighbours and the people we come into contact with every day.

“It’s the reason we chose the teapot as a symbol for Staying Well in North Halifax. It’s something we can all relate to.

“When you make someone a cup of tea, especially a proper cuppa in a teapot, you’re saying, ‘here is some of my time, we can chat if you want to but I’m going to make you a brew and drink it with you’”.
