Could you volunteer as a Powys Befriender?

 

We have a range of volunteering opportunities available for caring individuals who can spare an hour or so each week to support our clients, including:

  • Telephone or video calls
  • Exchanging letters/emails
  • Face to face visits
  • Attending community activities or online groups
Older friends

Help us make a difference

Powys Befriending Service supports people aged 50 and over across Powys. 

We help people stay independent, build confidence, and connect with others—whether that’s through a friendly weekly cuppa and chat at home, a telephone call, letter or email, or rediscovering community activities.

 

 

As a volunteer you could …

  • Help reduce loneliness and social isolation for an older person 
  • Improve your own confidence
  • Learn new skills
  • Extend your social network

Full training and ongoing support will be provided.

Relevant volunteering expenses can be reimbursed.
