Our Community Connecting service can help you find social groups and activities in your area. A volunteer will call to get to know you and find out what you may enjoy. They will get back to you with options local to you and check in with you as you try them out.

Our Friendship Calls are weekly telephone calls of friendship, support and companionship to older people in Scotland. One of our team of volunteers will call you at a weekly time slot convenient to you, ready with a listening ear for a friendly and informal chat.

Our Friendship Circles invite older people to join regularly scheduled group telephone calls based around a shared background, interest or language. Conversations on each agreed topic will be hosted by a volunteer at the same time each fortnight, with up to 8 older people taking part.
