Telephone Befrienders - Community Buddies

Some Coastline customers can feel isolated and lonely at times, we are looking for a caring individual to join our telephone befriending team to be a listening ear. This is a flexible volunteer role that can be carried out from home, making it perfect for those with limited time or anyone looking to fit volunteering around work or other commitments. 

What you could be doing: 

• Make regular friendly phone calls to Coastline customers who may feel isolated or lonely  
• Offer a listening ear and provide companionship through conversation  
• Build positive, supportive relationships over time  
• Refer customers to local groups, activities, or schemes they express interest in 
• Maintain confidentiality and respect boundaries 

 
In return, we can offer volunteers: 

• Travel Expenses
• Full induction & training
• Celebration Events
• Equipment necessary for the role
• The opportunity to win in our Quarterly Volunteer Prize Draw.

We look forward to hearing from you
