Connections for Life is the new way that the RAF Association is fighting loneliness with friendship. Loneliness affects tens of thousands of people across the RAF community. Whether it’s a veteran struggling to adapt to life after service, or a family member facing difficulties alone, loneliness can be devastating to mental and physical health. A regular chat with a friend can make the world of difference when you are alone.
Connections for Life depends on a dedicated team of volunteers. Because the pandemic has left so many more people in the RAF community cut off from friends and family, we urgently need more volunteers to step forward and offer friendship over the telephone.
If you are able to offer some of your time, please get in touch with our Connections for Life team at friend@rafa.org.uk or call 0800 018 2361
