Befriending - Many people in Fife are affected by social isolation and loneliness,  which over and above being an emotional experience, can adversely impact on a person's physical and mental health. Crossroads recruits, trains and matches volunteers to act as Befrienders, offering time to socially isolated and lonely older adults across Central, Levenmouth and North East Fife, which in turn helps to alleviate the affects of this problem. Befrienders provide a vital contact for a person, a link to the outside world and can act as a gateway for other services and valuable support. They can support someone to build confidence and participate in a local community activity or group, or indeed, assist that person to pass on their skills and talents to others. 

If you feel you would benefit from the support of a Volunteer Befriender, or you are an individual over 16 years old and you are interested in volunteering, please contact -
