About this service
Bedford Linking Lives is a befriending service aimed at adults who find themselves requiring some extra friendship and support, and this is provided through weekly home visits or telephone calls. We match volunteers with those who are referred to us and all volunteers are carefully selected, trained and vetted.
PLEASE CONTACT US DIRECTLY TO DISCUSS YOUR REFERRAL, WE WILL THEN SEND YOU OUR REFERRAL FORM. We accept referrals for adults 18+. You can contact us at [email protected] or 07887 9188885.
We accept referrals from statutory organisations such as social workers, social prescribers, GP’s and community health practitioners, charities, friends and family members or self-referrals. Our main criteria for admission to the scheme is for there to be clear evidence of social isolation and that our service is being requested by the person concerned. We regret that we are unable to arrange visits where there is a diagnosis of advanced dementia or certain mental health conditions.
Our service is available to adults living within Bedford Borough. For further details please contact us on 07887 918885. Please contact Linking Lives Bedford if you would like to discuss making a referral. Thank you.
