Our Companionship Service connects individuals affected by dementia with trained volunteers through regular phone calls, weekly online groups, and access to a 24/7 online forum. These options provide a safe and welcoming space to chat, share, or connect whenever you need it.
You can sign up for yourself or on behalf of someone else. Our Companionship team will reach out to discuss which options are best suited for your needs. All information is held securely. To find out more about how we use your personal information, please read our personal information policy.
This form is intended for those seeking companionship support. If you’re are interested in volunteering, please visit our Companion Call Volunteer webpage.
To receive support, you must meet the following criteria:
- Be a person living with dementia or awaiting a diagnosis
- Be a caregiver for someone with dementia
- Be able to answer a telephone
- Have internet access if you wish to join weekly online groups or use the forum
- Live in England, Wales, or Northern Ireland
