Age UK Northumberland Friendship Line
Not having someone to talk to regularly can be lonely. A regular weekly chat on the telephone with a friendly volunteer can make all of the difference. The Friendship Line is a free telephone friendship service run by Age UK Northumberland for people aged 60 and over.
If you, or someone you know, would like a weekly friendly chat and you meet the criteria below, then please get in touch:
- is aged 60 or over
- feels lonely
