The Friendship Network at the Manor Gardens Centre in Islington is a fantastic project to be involved with. We make a real difference to older people who have become isolated as they have grown older. Our volunteers visit, go out with people who can't manage to go alone, phone regularly to keep in touch and join in with outings to support the person they befriend. You can be involved for as little as 2 hrs a week, or more if you have time. We are a friendly group that welcomes and supports new volunteers.
