What do we provide
We provide 1:1 telephone calls on a weekly basis to individuals struggling with feelings of loneliness. We do not have a set limit of sessions because we do not believe that is befriending. We talk as longs as you need too.
The calls can range from general conversations to emotional support. It is important to note that although our volunteers have training they are not trained professionals and this is not counselling.
The calls are here to make people feel less alone. To let them know that there are people out there that want to listen. And want to talk.
Who do we work with?
Our service has a very broad criteria for the simple reason that loneliness can affect anyone and everyone. It is important to note that this is services is for Kent and Medway residents only.
We have a keen focus in supporting individuals with mental health conditions. This includes individuals with complex emotional difficulties. We see people as people and we will always talk to a client in the first instance before making an decisions around engagement.
