Volunteer as a telephone befriender.
A regular friendly call can brighten someone’s week. Our Telephone Befriending volunteers help people who are feeling lonely or isolated to feel listened to and connected.
You don’t need to have all the answers. Kindness, reliability and the willingness to listen are a wonderful place to start. Our team can explain what’s involved and the support available.
