AGE UK Herefordshire and Worcestershire is running a befriending scheme to help combat loneliness and isolation among older people.
The scheme in South Wychavon area is in need of volunteers to match with clients.
Volunteers will need a couple of hours a week to spare and must be able to happily sit and have a conversation with an lonely older person, or can take them out for a drive or a coffee.
For more information call 0800 0086077 and ask to speak with Liz Corrigan.
