Sutherland Care Forum
About Sutherland Care Forum
Through this free, confidential befriending service we aim to help people of all ages isolated by disability or health issues feel part of their community. Contact with a volunteer friend can make all the difference to a lonely person who may be helped with shopping, transport and company to appointments etc. Much valued respite may also be provided to unpaid carers. Through a contract with Highland Hospice we support people with a palliative care diagnosis and offer a No One Dies Alone (NODA)service.
