We won’t give up until everyone experiencing a mental health problem in Dorset gets support and respect.

Trained volunteers provide one-to-one support to promote social inclusion.  They support and encourage people to access their own community and create social opportunities. This helps increase their self confidence and social interactions.

Who can access our Befriending service?

• Anyone who is aged 18+ and experiences mild to moderate Mental Wellbeing Challenges
• People that would like support to develop positive mental wellbeing.
• Anyone who is ready to take active steps to work towards recovery goals which will include reducing social-isolation, improving confidence and self-esteem.
