New Volunteer Training

In response to the changing needs of befriending organisations working to change face-to-face/group befriending to a distance format as well as consider recuiting new volunteers to meet increased demand, there will be no new sign up for Core Skills in Befriending for Volunteers. Instead, Befriending Networks is currently developing a new volunteer training programme to help organisations in these new circumstances.

New Volunteer Training is Coming Soon!

Befriending Networks in currently developing volunteer training to help organisations safely and efficiently train 'Interim Befrienders' (volunteers specifically recruited to deliver distance befriending during the period of COVID-19).

Sign up options will be available through this page when the training is launched. Please check back here or follow us on Twitter @Befriendingnet for updates.
