We have a Buddy System, a support service for people who are lacking in confidence, have low self-esteem, or are isolated and alone. The aim is to alleviate inactivity and social exclusion by supporting people into new activities and developing new interests. We recruit volunteers and then pair the person needing support for an agreed amount of time to help build confidence, working towards them being able to have the confidence to get out of the house and back into the community under their own volition.
