About us
Who we are
The purpose of BEfriend is to link volunteer befrienders with housebound and isolated clients living in the London borough of Ealing. The befriender may be the only person, apart from professionals, whom the volunteer has seen all week, and can thus be their main contact with the outside world. Volunteers often feel great satisfaction and fulfillment with their role, knowing that they are making a huge positive difference to the lives of their clients, hence we call them Lifechangers.
Due to a waiting list of clients we are actively seeking new volunteers at this time. Volunteers need to provide 2 referees, have a DBS check and be willing to attend our one day training course.
