We are detached from each other, more isolated, less a sense of belonging.Older people not invested in for their quality of what can still contribute.
Some who have lived life's where alcohol misuse,drug dependant, never reached potential.
Many simply excist.
Dwellings we call homes can be splendid. But for many streets are Dickensian fairytale.
Hard to be comfortable, with over occupation.High energy bills affect quality of life experienced. Other factors also.
Once people knew people in own streets, most folk. Young knew older folk, had honourable acknowledgement of their journey. Trips to towns become less frequent, social cohesion stumped, no longer are we expected to
know lot of local residents.
Churches ,Social cluds, youth centre,old skool pubs,trade union halls, were gatherings (not exclusive), where,young, family,older, plus very young , crossed age cultures ,
would meet together.
Lack of present authoritive service's in Rural,seaside community's
Never been well resourced. Now further leads to poorer quality of life.
Remoulding community and deeper awareness of issue's affecting individual development been known long time.
Reluctances to support poorest among ourselves. Increases poverty.
That increased both strain on society,strain on remodelled new families.
We are media and internet linked, but not connecting.
Those already without, further disadvantaged when not technology resourced.
Community now confusing.Its happening less in reality.
Sadly happening more in media links ,
That's if they work.
Those services that should outreach to vulnerable and powerless.Sit waiting concerned,
But not grasping that face to face contact.
Relationships.
Conversations around issues,
Gatherings,
Community,
Society disjionted.
Unskilled workers,not pastorale
use keyboards to make decisions around provision.
Such decisions are life altering cannot be
done away from actual involvement, with individuals and communities.
