The Age UK Hounslow Befriending service aims to give support and companionship to older people who may feel lonely and isolated. Our main target client group are Hounslow residents aged over 65 and living alone who have little social contact.
Applicants are matched with a suitable volunteer who visits their home for at least one hour each week to keep them company and have a chat. Visits are arranged for a time that suits both the client and the volunteer and we aim for the Befriending partnership to last for at least 12 months.
The service is free and anyone can refer to the scheme. This includes self-referrals from people who may wish to use the scheme.
