We're recruiting more volunteers. Can you spare a few hours each month?
Your time and friendship can make a big difference to someone with a life-limiting illness. See our FAQs for more information.


Oxfordshire Befriending for Life is a free service.

We offer friendship to people living with a life-limiting illness. We also provide support for their carers and loved ones.

Our fully trained volunteer befrienders are supported by a skilled, experienced, and professional team of coordinators.

Dealing with a life-limiting illness and supporting a loved one who is very ill can be among the greatest challenges we face – OxBEL befrienders offer friendship without fear and with openness and honesty.
