Summary

Join Good Neighbours in The Mocha Lounge to learn how you can be a befriender to visit an older person near you. It's flexible, convenient & fun!

Detailed description

Befriending an older person in your local area takes just 30-60 minutes, fortnightly or weekly. It fits into your life, and you gain a new friend. You can learn more about Coventry life & history, and feel great that you've made a housebound older person feel less lonely.


You will be carefully matched by your shared hobbies and interests. Support is available at any time, should you need it.


Come to this information session on Tuesday 05/08/2025 12:00pm Mocha Lounge Winsford Ave Allesley Park CV5 9AF

and explore befriending with us. People tell us it has changed their lives for the better more than they ever expected.

Getting there

The venue is located right next to Abbey Blinds and Curtains and down the road from Chicken Village.
