We need you

The pandemic has impacted the physical and mental wellbeing of many people we support.

Our volunteer befrienders help reduce loneliness in Neath Port Talbot and make a real difference to people’s lives.

What does a befriender do?

• Build people’s confidence
• Support health and wellbeing
• Share basic skills – like planning, budgeting & communication
• Attend community groups
• Help come up with goals for the future

Volunteering hours are flexible, but we need you to be reliable and punctual. Training is provided.

If you have a specialised skill, please let us know.

We want to give you the opportunity to volunteer in something you enjoy doing, in a location that is convenient to you.
