Selkirk

We’ve been based in Selkirk in the heart of the Scottish Borders for over 40 years. Although one of the UK’s smaller branches, our dedicated team of 34 volunteers provide emotional support to people in times of need.

In the past 6 months, our volunteers have answered 2486 telephone calls and spent 663 hours on the phone to callers.

Sadly, due to Covid restrictions, our normal outreach events in our communities have been curtailed but we hope to re-commence these as soon as permitted.
