Project HELPLINE
Having no one to talk to can be incredibly isolating, particularly if you’re used to sharing your home and time with others. We know that shielding and self-isolation due to COVID-19 is causing many people among our RAF community to feel very lonely. Something as simple as a friendly chat can make all the difference.
We are determined to ensure that no single member of our community is alone and struggling through these difficult times.
We are providing a freephone friendship line for anyone in our RAF community to call if you are feeling isolated, in need of more specific support, or simply want to chat with someone who understands.
We can also arrange for a dedicated friend from our amazing army of volunteers to make regular telephone contact.
If you need someone to talk to, please call 0800 018 2361 or email opconnect@rafa.org.uk.
To volunteer your services to our friendship helpline or to become a telephone befriender, please email opconnect@rafa.org.uk.
We are here and will continue to be here for anyone that needs us. We are united, standing shoulder to shoulder with our RAF community in these times of crisis.
