Befriending service

WICKLOW Dementia Support is looking for volunteers for ‘AlzPals’, a befriending service for people with dementia.

WDS is a charity operated and staffed by volunteers to help families living with dementia in County Wicklow. Their driving force is to help those with dementia retain as much independence as possible and for them to remain in their homes for as long as possible.

One of the services they provide is a befriending program, AlzPals, whereby we match a volunteer with a person living with dementia for weekly visits. All HSE Covid-19 guidelines will be strictly adhered to and online training and Garda vetting provided for volunteers.
