Six months after losing David, Eva called Age UK and learned about the Age UK Telephone Friendship Service.
She was soon paired with telephone befriender Lorraine, who provided emotional support as Eva adjusted to her new life and moved into a smaller home. And although Christmas remains a difficult time, Eva knows that she still has her regular calls with Lorraine to look forward to at this time of year.
“My telephone friend Lorraine helped me through a really bad time. I think the world of her.”
