About Compassionate Communities NI
THE CAUSE We believe that death and dying are social issues as well as a medical issue. Sadly, many people impacted by advanced illness and age frailty report feeling lonely and socially isolated. Loneliness and social isolation negatively impacts a person’s mental, emotional and physical health, the damage to health is widely accepted to be equivalent to smoking 15 cigarettes a day. The reality is that people living with advanced illness, age frailty, their informal caregivers and those people living with bereavement experience a ‘social death’ long before and after a physical death.
