Loneliness and isolation can affect anyone in life, whatever their age and whatever their family situation. It is possible to feel alone even if you have friends and family around you, sometimes it really helps to talk to someone new who can just listen and support.

Our Befriending Project is here to provide emotional support, companionship, signposting and connections for women and families facing isolation, anxiety, or hardship.

We provide home visits, mentoring and after care support, offering women early intervention and preventative services before problems reach crisis point. The service seeks to improve their physical, mental and emotional health and wellbeing by creating a safe space for individuals to share their struggles, celebrate their victories, and rebuild their confidence.

How We Help:

Our project supports women facing a wide range of challenges, including:

• Social isolation and loneliness

• Domestic violence and harassment

• Divorce or family breakdown

• Immigration concerns

• Parenting struggles

• Stress, depression, and anxiety

• Accessing healthcare and community resources

By helping women connect with local services and build meaningful relationships, we create a pathway toward independence, confidence, and community participation.
