What does is include?        

• Daily friendly calls

• Listening to and sharing problems       

• Providing information about local organisations who are offering useful services    

• Linking people with nearby volunteers to provide practical help, such as shopping, collection of prescriptions or dog walking

• Essential transport to health and wellbeing related appointments

WHERE does it OPERATE?

Within the parishes of Moretonhampstead, North Bovey, Manaton, Lustleigh, Bridford and Postbridge. (Note: if you live outside these areas our advisers should be able to point you in the right direction!)

WHEN does it OPERATE? 

Calls will be answered on weekdays between 9.00am - 5.30 pm with a messenging service outside these hours. Emails will be answered ASAP.
