Sense Virtual Buddying Project
Sense are running a Virtual Buddying project is open to anyone with a disability aged 5 years and over that may be experiencing isolation or loneliness. The project works by matching a disabled person with a virtual buddy for a weekly call online or over the phone. Some matches choose to keep their calls to a social chat whilst others like to build skills together such as cooking and playing instruments. Virtual Buddying helps reduce isolation, improves self-esteem and confidence, helps improve communication, social and independent living skills and gives all our buddies something to look forward to every week!
