It’s Befriending Week and it’s a great time to reflect on all the experiences we have had over the last eight months since lockdown began. It’s also a good time to reflect on what we have learned and if the last few months have taught us anything, it’s taught us the importance of having someone to talk to, to know someone is there when we need them.
Our Befriending team will continue to work tirelessly through the next phase of the pandemic and both we, and our clients feel stronger and more prepared this time round.
It’s always heart-warming to hear how much our Irish Elders appreciate the work we do on our Befriending Project. It has made them feel less isolated and gives them the opportunity to stay connected to the Community they so love being a part of.
Befriending works both ways. We offer our service to our clients and the meaningful and grateful words we hear in return is truly heart-warming and makes it such a pleasure to work with such a wonderful community.
Some quotes from our Irish Elders have shown how important it is for us to continue the work that we do.
It hasn’t all been easy, people’s individual lives have to continue and day to day challenges have to be dealt with. That is where The Befriending Project is so important to our clients. They know they can call upon us and our team to help them solve any problems that otherwise would be very timely and stressful without our help, and we are always here to help!
Happy Befriending Week!!
