Friendly Phone Calls
Covid-19 has caused a huge reduction in people's social interaction. For many, this lack of contact will be having an impact on their mental wellbeing. Regular conversations with a friendly volunteer can make a huge positive difference.
If you feel like you could do with a chat over the phone, either email us at callybarnsmutualaid@gmail.com, or let one of the coordinators from your local Whatsapp group know. One of our volunteers will be in touch.
