Our wonderful volunteers, known as befrienders, are crucial in bringing joy and companionship to people who might be feeling lonely or isolated.As a befriender, you’ll spend about an hour each week brightening someone’s day. This could be a friendly chat over the phone or a face-to-face meet-up, depending on what works best for both of you. It’s a role that’s all about being compassionate, friendly, and a good listener.But it’s not just about what you give. Volunteering with us is incredibly rewarding for you too.

All we ask for is an hour of your time each week and a six-month commitment to ensure we provide a stable and reliable service to those who need it.If this sounds like something you’d love to do, we’d be thrilled to hear from you! Whether you’re young or old, a chatterbox or a great listener, anyone can be a fantastic befriender. Join us and be part of a community that’s making a difference, one conversation at a time.
