Coronavirus has disrupted the lives of thousands in Glasgow and safe, empowering volunteering is more important than ever. Volunteer Glasgow's Befriending & Mentoring Team are working hard to ensure that the families and individuals we support can continue accessing contact from befrienders over the phone, and that volunteers are able to safely make deliveries of food and essential household items. For many of the people we work with, the quarantine measures means they are living at increased risk of domestic, sexual and emotional abuse. We need your help to ensure that we can keep delivering services that keep communities safe and connected. We are asking for £5000 to get essential goods to people that need them, and to support the volunteers making deliveries, phone-calls and remote befriending visits. It is vital that COVID-19 doesn't mean a cliff-edge in support for people in isolation. Donate today to ensure that individuals and families across Glasgow get the support they need.
