Service summary
Befriending Service
If you live alone in Hartlepool then this FREE service is available to you.
It aims to support those who may have become isolated or don’t have regular contact from family and friends. The service will provide you with a matched volunteer who will come out to visit you.
Initially, this may be visiting you at home for a chat over a cup of tea or perhaps accompanying you on short walks or eventually outings to attend local social groups. With the intention of building your confidence to participate in activities or even eventually become volunteers yourself.
The scheme is completely free and is funded by Hartlepool Borough Council and delivered by Cleveland Fire Brigade (CFB).
