Situation
Problems faced by the people who will benefit from this campaign include bereavement, physical disability, clinical depression, post-traumatic stress disorder and other mental health conditions, and social isolation.
Solution
The people who will benefit from this campaign will participate in fun and creative group activities, in their home communities, in the Wordsworth Trust's archive immersed in a unique collection of manuscripts, and in the inspiring landscape of the Lake District. These activities have a track record of bringing joy to people's lives. Previous beneficiaries have described them as 'a lifeline'.
