People Living Alone
Supporting continued human connection for individuals living independently.
A human-centred wellbeing check programme inspired by the Japanese concept of Mimamori — designed to support connection, reassurance and awareness for people who may be living independently or away from their families.
Mimamori is inspired by a Japanese approach centred around quietly looking out for the wellbeing of people within a community.
Through the FCS Mimamori programme, the focus is on maintaining human connection, encouraging awareness and providing reassurance to families — particularly where a loved one may be living alone or independently.
Mimamori is not surveillance.
The programme is built around respectful human

communication.
