It is not unusual for some people with sight loss to feel isolated especially in the current climate when it is even more challenging to get out and about. Our telephone befrienders can call you for a chat either weekly or fortnightly, whichever you prefer.

We will aim to match you with someone with similar interests and the service is an opportunity to speak to someone who understands what it is like to live with sight loss from personal experience. You may want to talk about your experience of sight loss or you may want to talk about something completely different, the conversation is guided by you.
