YorFriend Befriending service - YORK & SURROUNDING AREAS
Services
Sitting Service
Sometimes having someone to talk to and spend time with can make a huge difference to your quality of life. I provide support and companionship and a listening ear. The sitting service involves talking and getting to know each other, learning about your hobbies and memories and what matters to you.
Days Out and Activities
If you want to go to the seaside or to a show, shopping or for afternoon tea, but have mobility issues, can't drive, friends or family don't live nearby enough to accompany you, or you would just like a friend to enjoy it with, I can be that friend. I have a range of Activity Packages to choose from, or we can create a bespoke package just for you based on your interests. Get in touch to discuss how we can get you living your life to the fullest.
You can even buy a package as a gift for someone if you have a loved one in York that you would like to see have some fun.
Respite for Carers
Caring for a loved one is rewarding but sometimes we all need some 'me time'. I provide respite for carers who would like a break in their routine. As an experienced nurse you can trust that your loved one is in safe hands while you have a much needed break.

Initial Visit
First I will visit you in your home for a free introductory meeting and we will have a chat and get to know each other, and there we can discuss what you would like to get from the service.
We can also schedule weekly or fortnightly visits if you wish.
I am also able to accompany you to hospital or GP appointments, or even provide an overnight sitting service, my befriending service is bespoke to your needs so feel free to get in touch and discuss how I can help you get more from life!
