About the befriending service
Our telephone-based befriending service is designed to reduce loneliness and isolation in the visually impaired community.We match befrienders and befriendees based on common values and interests for telephone calls at an agreed day and time.
The results of befriending can be very significant. Befriending often provides people with a new direction in life, opens doors to a range of activities and leads to increased self-esteem and self-confidence.
Befriending can also reduce the burden on other services which people may use inappropriately as they seek social contact.
