At Volunteer Now we believe connections count and having that friend can truly make a difference.
We know from experience bringing older people together to connect, listen, laugh and share can have a huge positive impact on their well-being.
Having a befriender is the best thing that has ever happened to me. It saved me from hell, thats the truth. Jeanette
For 25 years we have been providing a befriending service to older people who in particular can experience loneliness with one in three older people saying they have felt lonely. This can have a huge impact on their health and wellbeing.
A gift this winter could support older people to come together and enjoy each others company
From providing social opportunities to offering dedicated shopping and driving support to older people; every donation made this winter has the ability to change an older persons life.
Its nice to see the difference you can make to an older persons life in just a few hours Karen, Befriender
