01 Background

More than a million older people in the UK suffer from chronic loneliness, and it’s at its worst at Christmas. It has no physical sign, so it’s hard to empathise with.

02 Brief

Make an audience bombarded with charity messages at Christmas care about lonely older people, and volunteer for Age UK’s Call In Time service.

03 Solution

We shared real people’s stories as short dramas, performed by James Bolam, one of the UK’s most respected and loved actors.
