Popis: Little is known about self-management approaches to loneliness. We conducted in-depth interviews with 28 community-dwelling people in two diverse English areas, aged 65+, with self-declared or risk of loneliness. Experiences, self-management and support-seeking for loneliness were explored. Data were analysed thematically by a multi-disciplinary team, including lay older people.
