We are developing a phone support buddy system to match up adult siblings in the UK for mutual support. The service is a voluntary arrangement between two siblings with similar experiences and interests.
Adult siblings requesting a phone buddy for support
- You will be able to talk on the phone to someone who understands your feelings and concerns. Your phone buddy will ideally be able to be a listening ear for you at times when you need that support.
- Sibs will coordinate the initial registration and link, and after that it is up to the individuals concerned to arrange the dates, times and frequency of calls. Some siblings may only want to have one phone call, others might prefer a longer period of communication.
- You must be an adult sibling living in the UK and have a phone you can use at home
- Please read the phone buddy terms and conditions and complete buddy request form

- You must be an adult sibling living in the UK, have a phone you can use at home, and have some spare time to be available to commit to calls that you arrange with another sibling.
