Silver line

[Flying Bomb]

Has anyone used the Silver line phone service for the elderly if in need of chat because of lonelyness?

[klondike]

I wasn't aware of it so no.

[Silver Tabby]

Never heard of it, sorry.

It's part of Age UK services for older people.  I haven't used it, but I volunteer at our local AUK drop in for pensioners who want help with Pension Credit and other issues. There are different befriending services, phone calls or visits to people who are isolated.

I have never used it or heard of it..

What a great idea for those who need to chat to someone..
One never knows what our future holds and when a friendly voice at the end of a phone is needed..

Wasn't Esther Ransom  something to do with Silverline years ago?   
Didn't she help promote it?

Yes, she started it I believe.
