What you’ll do
Join us as we reveal and reflect on the results of the Loneliness Experiment with a diverse panel of speakers. BBC Radio 4 will begin recording the discussion from 15:00, but related activities will be happening from 14:00.
Launched on BBC Radio 4’s ‘All in the Mind’, the Loneliness Experiment was designed to find out who feels lonely and what can be done to help them feel more connected. In total, 55,000 people from across the world responded to the survey.
