Help us support older people in West Norfolk


West Norfolk Befriending is a registered charity and we offer our befriending services to our clients for free.

We have a small team and your money will directly impact the people we support.

We raise our own funds and rely on grants and donations to offer our service.

We match trained volunteer befrienders bringing conversation to people who struggle to leave their home through poor mobility or caring responsibilities. The clients we work with feel happier, less lonely and more connected with the world.

“The visit made my day yesterday, in fact it’s made my day today, I keep thinking of little things we talked about.”
