WaveLength is proud to be the UK’s leading charity focusing on loneliness and social isolation, working across the UK in local communities to reduce loneliness for people living in poverty by providing technology such as radios, televisions and tablets.

Research estimates that over 9 million in the UK are lonely at any given time. We help reduce the experience of loneliness by connecting people via technology to their families, support networks and communities. We calculate we work with over 25,000 beneficiaries a year.

The Covid-19 pandemic has highlighted the desperate issue of loneliness for millions
of people and raised awareness of the need for support across a wide range of donors. We want to capture the momentum of this increased awareness to build on our fundraising capability.
