Volunteer with AgeUK as a telephone befriender

 

Due to COVID-19 there is an increasing number of vulnerable older people who will be isolated and unable to gain access to the vital services they need.

AgeUK's telephone befriending service helps to ensure regular contact is given to those who need it most. As a volunteer telephone befriender, you will provide informal, social support to an isolated older person which can help to improve their physical and mental wellbeing and their self esteem during this unprecedented time, helping them to know they are not alone.
