West Norfolk Befriending

West Norfolk Befriending works with socially isolated older people living in West Norfolk. Many of its clients are socially isolated due to their role as a carer, or due to a long term physical or sensory disability. It aims to reduce social isolation by providing a link to the outside world. It matches isolated older people with trained, and DBS checked volunteer befrienders who will visit on a regular basis. West Norfolk Befriending aims to:
- Enhance the quality of life
- Maintain independence
- Reduce isolation
- Improve physical and mental wellbeing
- Identify risks to health and environment
It is currently running a series of Reminiscence Sessions for isolated older people in the community. These will be taking place at venues throughout rural West Norfolk over the next two years. Please contact West Norfolk Befriending for details of when and where the sessions are being held and how you can take part.
