Are you interested in becoming a volunteer for Age Concern Birmingham?
Telephone Befriending Volunteers required We have a list of older people who are waiting for a Volunteer Home Visitor in all areas of Birmingham. Would you be prepared to be a short-term Telephone Befriender to a lonely and isolated older person by telephoning them once a week from your own home for a maximum of 20 minutes to have a chat until a permanent Home Visitor can be found? Telephone expenses would be paid.
If you are interested learning more about the telephone befriending role, please contact Karen Knight, Volunteer Manager, either on email kknight@ageconcernbirmingham.org.uk or by telephone on 0121 262 3024 or by visit to 198 Corporation Street, Birmingham, and she will be able to give you further details. Alternatively, if you think you might like to be a Home Visitor she can also give you details of that role.

Mobile Recycling
ACB have teamed up with EnviroCharities, a scheme dedicated to helping you as a supporter to make money by selling your old mobile phone and
supporting Age Concern Birmingham at the same time. The process is really simple, it works by you selling your old phone(s) for anything up
to £180 on our website and for each sale EnviroCharities will automatically make a donation of £3.00 to our Charity.
You will always receive the value of your phone as listed on our website but if you are feeling generous you can also donate a percentage
value of your mobile phone to Age Concern Birmingham.
