Are you a good listener?Do you enjoy making someone's day?Can you spare an hour a week to change an older person's life by visiting them?

Why not become a Befriending Volunteer and help older people feel less alone?

We are looking for friendly, caring volunteers who can visit once a week and give them some company.

What will I be doing?

You will be matched with an older person, providing friendship and sharing news, views and interests.

All volunteers must be over the age of 18 and are recruited subject to references and a clear enhanced DBS. Training will be provided
