Services include extended helpline hours, extra holiday support, telephone and video groups, Christmas Day and Boxing Day calls, and winter befrienders. You can find out more about the service and how to apply on the Deafblind UK website.
If you will be alone over Christmas and would like a friendly call on Christmas Day or Boxing Day, please let Deafblind UK know by 20th December.
