Community Connections Monmouthshire

Community Connections supports people who are socially isolated in Monmouthshire to feel part of their community by providing volunteer befrienders.
We bring people together either on a one-to-one basis or in social activity groups. Volunteers can provide company at home and may also enable people to get out to get to appointments or local facilities.
Community Connections has two project bases, one in Bridges Community Centre, Monmouth, and the other in The Palmer Centre, Chepstow. The project has a steering group made up of representatives from Monmouthshire County Council (MCC), Aneurin Bevan Health Board (ABHB), Gwent Association of Voluntary Organisations (GAVO), Monmouthshire Housing Association, Care and Repair, Bridges Community Centre and the Palmer Centre.
