We empower women by helping them recognize their inner strength, identify their needs, and make choices that lead to a better future. With no barriers of race, culture, or religion, our support is for everyone who needs it. If we are unable to help you directly, we will guide you to appropriate resources and support you through the process.

‘I used to stay in my pyjamas for weeks and couldn’t be bothered leaving my bed or taking a shower. I didn’t realise that I had slowly gone into depression.
But when my befriender started visiting, I made the effort to dress up and wait for her because she made the effort to leave her home every week to come out to see me. I knew that I couldn’t continue just sitting & feeling sorry for myself.’ (Service User)
WHO CAN USE THE SERVICE?
Our clients may be referred by statutory and non- statutory organisations, faith groups, community groups, neighbours, GPs, health visitors, family and friends. Unfortunately, we do not accept self-referrals. Professionals may fill out our online here to submit referrals or contact us via email at info@wfrc.uk.com
Once you sign up for our befriending service, we'll first have an initial call with you; this is just so we can get to know a little bit more about you. We don't just pair you with anyone, you'll be matched with someone we think best suits your needs. It's important for you and your befriender to get along so you'll be matched based on personality and interests.
