We see how important our work has been over the past 39 years and we thank everyone for all the feedback around the impact our befriending service and helpline have had on many families.
We are happy to remain rooted in our campaigning efforts which will take us into 2024.
Thanks to those that gave us feedback on our Befriending Service recently.
Although we are sad that our project is now winding down we are so glad that we made a difference!

Befriending helps tackle isolation and build community connections.
As a befriending organisation, this week we are celebrating #BefriendingWeek,
the national campaign running from 1st – 7th November. #befriendingis
Our volunteers have been so dedicated in supporting our project and we cannot thank them enough. One of our volunteers recently commented saying "My volunteering with Rescare has been one of my best experiences" #befriedingis making a difference! #befriendingweek @befriendingnet
1 day to go until many of us across the country will reflect on how our befriending service has made a difference to the lives of so many people. #befriendingis a great way to connect #befriendingweek #support
Thank you @befriendingnet for continuing to support us!
