Rainbow Call Companion - LGBT+ Telephone Befriending

Get a rainbow call companion
If you'd like a bit of extra company, we can match you with one of our friendly rainbow call companions. They love a good chat and they're great listeners too.
As you get older it's not unusual to spend more time on your own, particularly if you've lost loved ones or your health isn't what it used to be.
Following the success of our call companions service, we launched rainbow call companions: a free telephone befriending service for LGBT+ people who are lonely, isolated or in need of companionship and feel they would benefit from a friendly phone call every week or two. This is a service specifically for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender plus (LGBT+) people aged 75+ who would like to speak to someone who's also LGBT+.
Calls last for half an hour or so and you can chat about anything that interests you. What's great is that the same volunteer phones you every time, so you can get to know each other and share stories and laughter - for as long as you both want.
