Sky - #BefriendingIs life changing, amazing, and uplifting!

Sky and National Befriending Week

National Befriending Week is an amazing opportunity for us to recognise the brilliant work our Time to Care volunteers do for our customers in the communities where we live and work. 

All this week at Sky, we will be making connections through our Time Together events in the community, celebrating the friendships between our befrienders and customers, and raising money for our Age UK partners.

We are also encouraging our staff to play their part in tackling loneliness. No action is too small.

Together we can continue to keep people connected and make a meaningful difference.

 

Befriending Is …

We asked the volunteers at the heart of Sky’s Befriending programme to tell us what ‘befriending is’ to them. Check out what they had to say in the video below!

 

Here is just one story from our Sky befriending friendships, featuring one of our Customer Advisors Gary and his friend Barbara.
