Do you live in the Sevenoaks District?

Working together with Age UK Sevenoaks and Tonbridge and West Kent Mind, we’re relaunching our free telephone conversation service, Telepal.

Telepal is a lifeline to people living alone or for those who feel isolated. Some individuals go all day without speaking to another person, which can cause loneliness and poor mental health.

With Telepal, you can talk to a friendly volunteer over the phone about anything you wish and as frequently as you like. It’s easy to register and you only need to do it once.

Telepal is for those living alone or those who feel isolated. With Telepal you can talk to a friendly volunteer over the phone for half an hour a week.
