At times when we feel vulnerable, perhaps following some bad news, and feel the need for some informal support from someone who understands, the Befriending Service may help.
Most of us have friends and family but do not always feel that we can talk to them. A befriender is someone in whom you can confide, knowing that you will not be judged or criticised and that your feelings and opinions are important.
Befrienders can also help if you don’t have the confidence to go to a group or workshop on your own. If you find it hard to leave your home alone, a befriender can support you.
Meeting up with a befriender once or twice a month can help build your confidence and help you to feel less lonely and isolated.
