The Buddy Project 24-25

Details Hide[-]

The Buddy Project is a peer-peer support scheme, whereby volunteers are paired with students who would like to meet up with someone new, have a chat or enjoy doing something in the local area. 

Although volunteers are there to listen and engage on topics that interest their buddies, they are not able to provide therapy or mental health advice to students.

Where possible, students will be paired with volunteers who have similar interests. It is entirely up to buddy pairings when and where they would like to meet and chat- they could meet remotely over Teams or Zoom, in a local cafe, on campus or on a walk outside. 

PLEASE ONLY SIGN UP IF YOU WANT TO VOLUNTEER. If you would like to have a Wellbeing Buddy please email us at wellbeingbuddies@undebbangor.com
