Article – Later adulthood
Demographic trends mean the number of over 50s suffering from loneliness is set to reach two million by 2025/6.
This compares to around 1.4 million in 2016/7 – a 49% increase in 10 years – according to new research by Age UK.
[i] The findings, published today in Age UK’s new report “All the lonely people: Loneliness amongst Older People”
show that the proportion of older people who are lonely has remained relatively constant but that the numbers of
older people are rising fast. Over the last decade around one in every twelve older people say they ‘often’ feel
lonely. The Charity warns that if this continues, huge numbers of people are on course to experience loneliness in
later life, because our population is ageing. This should be a major public health concern because if loneliness is
not addressed it can become chronic, seriously affecting people’s health and well-being.
This new Age UK analysis found that being ‘often’ lonely affects people of all ages to a similar degree, but that
different circumstances tend to prompt it, depending on age. Leaving full-time education, for example, is often a
vulnerable time for younger people, whereas the death of a loved one or the onset of illness and disability are
more common trigger points among older people. Following its analysis, the Charity is calling for loneliness to be
measured in ways that ensure its prevalence across all age groups is captured equally well.
The research found that the risk of being often lonely is dramatically higher among those people who are
widowed, do not have someone to open up to, or are in poor health. Using data from the English Longitudinal
Study of Ageing (ELSA), the Charity’s analysis identified that the over-50s are over five times more likely to be
‘often lonely’ if they are widowed compared with older people who are in a relationship, and nearly four times
more likely to be ‘often lonely’ if they are in poor health compared with older people who are in good or excellent
health. It also found older people are more than twice as likely to be ‘often lonely’ if they have money issues,
compared with those who don’t.[ii]
Because loneliness occurs when people’s ability to engage with others is inhibited, helping people cope with and
overcome these feelings can require more than just offering them social activities. That’s why Age UK is calling for
the Government’s loneliness strategy to support and develop initiatives which provide the opportunity for
personalised 1:1 support, as well as proven approaches such as community connectors, social prescribing and care
navigators. The Government should also provide leadership and resources so that councils and local health bodies
can fund the provision of a range of joined up local services to help to prevent and address loneliness. A genuinely
, cross Government approach is essential in the strategy because so many different elements need to be taken into
account, including the availability of local transport and social care.
In its report, Age UK also calls for the Government to introduce a ‘loneliness test’ for all policy proposals to assess
their likely impact on loneliness by measuring their impact on social networks and community resources. This is in
recognition of the fact that many different factors influence the social and physical infrastructure needed to
support the meaningful relationships required for tackling loneliness.
Age UK’s Charity Director, Caroline Abrahams, said: “Our population is ageing quite fast and so we’re heading
towards having two million lonely over-50s in less than a decade, with serious knock on consequences for their
physical and mental health, and therefore for the NHS, unless we take action now.
“This is why the Government’s forthcoming Loneliness Strategy is so timely and important: it needs to contain a
raft of measures to prevent and address loneliness among people of all ages, plus enough resources so they can be
implemented. The Government cannot ‘solve loneliness’ on its own, but it can ensure the foundations are in place
so all of us can play our part, as neighbours, relatives, friends, employers and volunteers.
“Loneliness can blight your life just as badly if you are 18, 38 or 78, but our analysis found that different life events
tend to trigger the problem depending on your age. It makes sense to target help at people going through the
kinds of challenging experiences that put people at risk, whether you are in your youth and leaving college; in mid
life and going through a divorce; or in later life, having recently been bereaved. And we have to make sure we
measure loneliness in a way that accurately captures its prevalence among people of all ages, from childhood to
far beyond.”
“People suffering with chronic loneliness may well need one to one help on a sustained basis, so this must be
factored into the Government’s plan. Age UK would also like to see a ‘Loneliness Test’ introduced for new
Government policies, to make sure they don’t unintentionally make the problem worse.
“There is no doubt in our minds, however, that preventing loneliness deserves to be a priority for both central and
local Government, and for the NHS too: that’s because it not only makes life miserable for people, it can also make
them a lot more vulnerable to illness and disease. At a time when there is a renewed focus on making sure every
penny the NHS spends really counts, we can’t afford an epidemic of loneliness in our country, but that’s a real risk
if we simply continue on as we are.”
