Join our hosts for Monday’s show where we will be discussing: 'Immigration' and 'Loneliness'. Loneliness As the days grow shorter and the nights feel colder, many hearts grow quiet too. Winter can be a beautiful time, but for some, it brings loneliness, silence, and a longing for connection. Join us this week as we talk about loneliness during the winter months, how it impacts our mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being, and what we can do to reach out and warm someone’s heart. Immigration As the UK Home Office looks to adopt tougher, Danish-style immigration policies focused on deterrence and temporary protection, the debate over immigration intensifies.
