Objectives

BEfriend provides one-to-one volunteer befriending to support people feeling socially isolated in the London boroughs of Ealing and Hounslow.

Activities

Our core Befriending Project supports people who are isolated and sometimes housebound. They may have a physical or sensory disability, or they may have mild dementia.

Our Linked Minds Befriending project provides specialist one-to-one befriending for adults who are isolated because of a diagnosed mental health problem.

Volunteering with BEfriend not only enriches the lives of those who are isolated, but also offers immense personal rewards. As a volunteer, you’ll befriend inspirational people with fascinating stories, develop new skills and be part of a supportive team that values compassion and connection.
