Loneliness can have a devastating impact on people’s health and wellbeing. British Red Cross volunteers are here to help people know that they are not alone and to reconnect with their community.
If you are compassionate, like helping and meeting people then this could be the role for you.
The British Red Cross helps people in crisis, whoever and wherever they are. We are part of a global voluntary network, responding to conflicts, natural disasters and individual emergencies. We help vulnerable people in the UK and abroad prepare for, withstand and recover from emergencies in their own communities.
