Volunteer Befriender -Welwyn & Hatfield

Are you a good listener? Do you enjoy making someone's day? Can you spare an hour a week to change an older person's life by visiting them?

We are looking for friendly, caring volunteers who can visit once a week and give them some company.

What will I be doing?

You will be matched with an older person, providing friendship and sharing news, views and interests.

As a Visiting Scheme Befriender, you will regularly visit an older person in their own home, perhaps for a cup of tea and a chat.

Qualifications

• All volunteers must be over the age of 18 and are recruited subject to references and a clear enhanced DBS.
• Training will be provided.
