Testimonials
“I was referred to the Befriending Service from the Communicator Guide service. I was feeling lonely and isolated. It is nice to have something to look forward to and have a lovely chat with a lovely voice. It boosts my day and cheers me up. It is a real benefit, especially if I am feeling down or lonely from time to time. “ Shehnazz, service user.
“I was referred to the Befriending Service through the Eye Clinic Liaison Officer (ECLO) as I was struggling with my anxiety and feeling very isolated. I look forward to that friendly weekly call. I know that I can ask for advice and support if I am struggling. After my phone call, I feel confident. It cheers me up and I am so grateful. It always makes me feel better within myself, motivated and I feel as though I can achieve things afterwards. “ Adele, service user.
