Private lifestyle support for you.
Why Neighbourly Matters
Practical support. Real connection.
The Importance of Social Connection
A landmark analysis of 148 studies (over 300,000 participants) found that social isolation and weak social relationships were associated with a 50% increased risk of premature death. Researchers now consider chronic isolation a risk factor comparable to smoking and other major health determinants.
Loneliness is linked with cognitive decline
Research shows socially isolated older adults face up to a 50% higher risk of developing dementia, highlighting how regular companionship and meaningful interaction play a vital role in protecting long-term cognitive health.
Stress adds up
Long-term stress has been linked to up to a 27% higher risk of heart disease, with research showing that chronic stress increases inflammation and cardiovascular strain. Reducing everyday pressures isn’t just helpful, it’s preventative.
Neighbourly Co. is lifestyle-first support for people and households who want life to feel calmer, more organised, and more connected. From shopping and put-away to errands and companion outings, we help reduce day-to-day stress while supporting routine, conversation, and real-world connection.
Neighbourly Co. provides non-medical lifestyle support. We do not provide clinical care or medical advice. Research references describe general associations between social connection, stress, and health outcomes.
