Befriending.
Building friendship and belonging, one visit at a time.

At Evergreen Care UK, we believe that meaningful, regular friendships can make a world of difference. Our free and confidential Befriending Service connects individuals with trained volunteers for weekly visits filled with conversation, laughter, and genuine companionship.

​

Each friendship is unique. It might mean sharing a cuppa, going for a walk, enjoying music, or simply sitting together. What matters most is that it feels natural and is shaped by you.

This isn’t just about passing time; it’s about building relationships that bring connection, confidence, and joy into your week.

“The befriending service can be a lifeline for people who feel isolated. It lifted the spirits of my elderly relative after many of her social activities did not restart following COVID.”
