About Age UK Camden
Dementia Befriending – If you’re an older person with memory issues or dementia, living on your own with little or no family & friends and have no contact with other services & activities, a befriender can visit you at home on a weekly basis.
Good Neighbours Befriending – offers befriending and companionship face-to-face. If you’re feeling a bit lonely, or just would like a bit of extra company, then we can arrange a match between you and a volunteer, who will come to visit you on a regular basis.
Telefriends Befriending – can support you or a loved one to stay connected and offer a friendly listening ear.
