Befriending is a great opportunity to give your time and commitment in making a real difference to someone's life.Our member James is in his 60s and lives in Ballymena and is looking for a friendly volunteer who is available to pay him a visit each week on a Monday or Friday afternoon.

James would love the opportunity to have a regular visitor and to get to know someone over a cuppa. James' faith is very important to him and he enjoys reading bible stories and loaning CDs from his local church.

Ideally, you will be a driver with your own transport, with a genuine interest in other people. A good listener available to make a regular weekly visit.

Do you need experience or specialist skills?

No - simply a genuine desire to help and some spare time on a regular weekly basis. We will ensure you are supported throughout your journey with us, offering training and support at all times. We will also reimburse out of pocket expenses to you and pay for your Access NI check.
