Befriending Networking Platform

With the aim to support learning and sharing of information, good practice and outcomes among youth groups and organisations providing or managing befriending services for elderly, the project will develop and pilot a Befriending Networking Platform. The platform will be compatible with desktop and mobile devices. Users will have the option to register themselves at the platform and create their personal profile, share texts, photos, blogs, videos and podcasts related to their experiences with befriending, as well as any learning or training materials that might be of benefit to others. The platform will also include a searchable database where potential volunteers and service users can find the contact details of registered befriending service providers in their respective country
