Good Neighbours volunteers support people who are feeling lonely and have little or no contact throughout the week or need help with the little things. This could be anything from a friendly telephone call or getting involved with a group, sorting out shopping or help doing some light exercise. Good Neighbours volunteers can:
- Make weekly phone calls for a friendly chat
- Meet for a weekly walk or chat either one-to-one or as part of a group
- Support people to get or remain engaged in community activities
- Collect things you need in the case of accident and emergency (e.g. shopping or prescription)
