Journey Across Befriending visits Aberdeen and Tamworth

23rd June 2025

Our Journey Across Befriending roadshow made its final stops at Aberdeen and Tamworth recently.

Aberdeen Roadshow

On Wednesday 21 May, Victoria and Lynne headed to Aberdeen for our event co-hosted with Excellence Award holders Befriend a Child. Everyone was in great spirits and came ready to chat and engage. Participants loved having the chance to meet new people to discuss ideas, successes and areas for development.

I enjoy networking and learning from others, some great ideas, I find these events really motivating!

Tamworth Roadshow

On Wednesday 18 June, Sandra and Becky joined our co-hosts Community Together CIC in Tamworth to welcome our participants to the final in-person Journey Across Befriending event of 2025. After a speedy change of venue, participants settled into a motivational day of discussions exploring various befriending topics.

“As a new member of Befriending Network it was nice to meet the team in person. I enjoyed talking to people already established in their role.”

Thank you to all our co-hosts for helping to make the Journey Across Befriending happen, and to all the participants who joined us on the Roadshow!
