As we age, we can sometimes feel more vulnerable alone and experience feelings of social isolation, especially after a bereavement, a slight decline in health or mobility has reduced and become limited.

Loneliness can impact health and is known to be associated with depression, appetite and a decline in physical activity. Utilising a companionship care service has many benefits and can help to reduce these feelings quite significantly.

According to AgeUK, over 2 million people in the UK will feel lonely or isolated over the age of 50, even more so since the coronavirus pandemic. Our befriending services help to provide the right support while offering companionship.

We can keep your loved ones company and get them to enjoy a range of activities or get back to doing what they used to enjoy.
