North Shrewsbury Friendly Neighbours is a registered charity situated in Castlefields, Shrewsbury.  Our services are provided by our Co-ordinator, Julie and a team of dedicated locally recruited volunteers, who receive full training, on-going support and expenses.

We address the needs of clients through the following means:

•  Practical support
– help with shopping, collecting prescriptions or pensions, transport to appointments, dog walking, etc.

•  Emotional support
– befriending the isolated and bereaved, support after stay in hospital, respite and support to carers.

•  Companionship
– our Friendship Group provides a relaxed, supportive environment where participants enjoy a variety of activities and, just as important, the company of others.

•  Signposting
– to an appropriate statutory or non-statutory organisation where a longer term need is identified.

Each volunteer is subject to a Police CRB check and two satisfactory references.  If you would like to volunteer, please visit our volunteering pages.
