A mum who is stuck at home with her baby daughter, feeling isolated and scared, needs to know that when she comes to our Tuesday group she won’t be judged or criticised or told what to do, but she will be heard and encouraged. And if she can’t make it this Tuesday, we will still be here next Tuesday – and the Tuesday after that.

A boy needs to know that no matter how angry he is with his mum or how badly he has been bullied by the boys in his class, his befriender comes every Thursday afternoon, and they always have a good time together, even if it is just walking the dog or going for a hot chocolate in town. And, if he wants to talk, his befriender will always listen.
