The Befriending Service was founded through listening to our community, residents, and those working in the area. Many people in Mount Florida were found to experience isolation and loneliness. This was confirmed through discussion with the local Medical Centre, and so in conjunction with them a Befriending Service was established. Thisis administered by a project co-ordiinator and trained volunteers.

The service has been in operation since 2003 and is now based at 4 Clincart Road (old Post Office). Members of the community can call in for a chat, a cup of coffee and find out more about befriending. Volunteers come from all walks of life. No experience is necessary, full training is given and expenses are paid.

Make a difference in someone’s life. Be part of a caring team in your community.
