There was another epidemic that was exposed by the last three years. Lonliness. Governments of both the United Kingdom and Japan have deemed it serious enough to create entire departments to deal with it. And these Ministries of Loneliness are a response to pandemic isolation impacts on both the young and the old. Here in Nova Scotia, a simple act of kindness helped launch a program to connect seniors and their community. Cara Chisholm is a co-founder of We Are Young (WAY). The non-profit group has been around for close to a decade and has recently branched out to start offering their help in the Maritimes. From small acts of kindness to granting big-ticket wishes, the group is looking to brighten the lives of seniors and reconnect communities. And doesn’t everyone deserves chocolates and a note from someone who cares for Valentines Day?
