Social isolation can increase the risk of mortality by almost 50%, even after underlying health conditions are accounted for. With daily phone calls we build trust and meaningful relationships to combat loneliness:

"It makes my day to feel wanted." Jim, 75.

"Because of my Good Morning Calls I feel I am in the world." Irene, 85.

"When the phone rings and they say 'hello', it is a better tonic right away than all the tablets I swallow." Ann, 86.

We also alert a next of kin/ police when someone fails to answer our Good Morning Call.

"You saved my life when you sent help that day - literally." Janet, 77. "My legs have collapsed before but I don't worry about that now because when I need help you're always there. It's very reassuring. The befrienders are my link to the outside world." Alan, 72.
