 It's Mental Health awareness week and this year it's all about getting connected and combating loneliness.
Most of us will have experienced times when we feel a little isolated or disconnected from the world around us.
Everyone feels lonely from time to time - loneliness can affect anyone and the recent pandemic has increased a lot of people’s feelings of being alone.
But feeling lonely or isolated can have a negative impact on your mental health - especially if these feelings go on for a long time.
Research suggests that loneliness is associated with an increased risk of certain mental health problems, including depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, sleep problems and increased stress.
So it’s really important that we all work together to help tackle it.

 We'd like to hear your thoughts on our Public Health Advisory service.
It provides Derbyshire residents with support on a range of issues including debt, housing, employment, welfare benefits and income maximisation
People can self-refer into the service or can be referred in through another organisation
We're looking to build on the success of the current project and to help us do this we would like to hear from people in Derbyshire who use the service, and those who don’t currently use it
Your feedback will help shape the service moving forward.
