Friends of BEfriend

Every contribution, whether a one-time donation or monthly ‘regular giving’, makes a significant difference.

A one-time donation, big or small, will help to fund training and support for our volunteers.

A monthly donation of £15 will cover the cost for five clients to attend a BEfriend afternoon tea, reducing loneliness and building connections – or – provide essential safeguarding training for three befrienders. 

A monthly donation of £30 will enable six people to attend a mental health support group by covering the cost of room hire – or – help fund befriending visits for three clients. 

A monthly donation of £70 will cover the full cost of DBS check, safeguarding training, volunteer training, plus staff support and expenses for one full year of befriending for one client.

Statistically, 8% of people are lonely. In Ealing and Hounslow that's 50,000 people. The figure rises for vulnerable groups. Help us to help our community. Become a friend of BEfriend today!
