Summary

As a Befriender you could provide company for a lonely older person in Coventry or Warwickshire

Detailed description

From as little as 15 minutes of your time, a week could make a massive difference to an older person's life. If you are empathetic and good at talking then becoming a volunteer for our Befriending Service this maybe the role for you.

As people get older, some may find they spend more time on their own. Some can no longer leave their home or have the confidence to do so. This can sometimes feel lonely, isolated or they miss friends and family.
