Barnet Friends

Barnet Friends is a telephone service for adults from 18 to 55 who may be experiencing isolation or loneliness.

We know that loneliness and isolation can affect anyone in life, whatever their age and whatever their family situation. It is possible to feel alone even if you have friends and family around you, sometimes it really helps to talk to someone new who can just listen and support.

Our volunteer befrienders can provide companionship, emotional support, and give information on a range of activities and services. Every volunteer befriender receives specific training around safeguarding and is required to complete a DBS check.

For more information please get in touch by phone or by sending us an email. We are available Wednesday - Friday and we will get back to you as soon as possible within 7 days.
