Telephone Befriender Application Form

About you

Hello and welcome to our online application for Volunteer Telephone Befrienders. We’ve tried to keep it as short as possible. It shouldn’t take more than 10 minutes to complete.

This role is very much about you as a person and we would love to get to know you, your story and hobbies. As you will be working with vulnerable adults we also need to make additional checks to ensure your and their safety so we'll need to know about your criminal record.

Thank you for your time.
