Telephone Friendship

telephone

Our free Telephone Friendship Service offers support and a friendly voice to veterans and their partners who may be feeling lonely, isolated or would just like a chat.

What is Telephone Friendship?

We offer regular phone calls to people who may not have lots of company or who are feeling lonely and would like someone to talk to. Our dedicated Telephone Friends provide friendly, casual conversation and wellbeing support.

 

Anyone who has served in His Majesty’s Armed Forces, including Reservists and those who completed National Service are welcome to use the service. This includes partners and widows / widowers of veterans.

How does it work?

  • When you register, you’ll be given the opportunity to tell us a bit about yourself and confirm how often you’d like us to call.
  • We will match you with one of our Telephone Friends.
  • Your Telephone Friend will call you at a pre-arranged time for a duration of your choice.
  • Our Telephone Friends will also use the time to check on your wellbeing to find out if you need any additional help or support.
