    It is too late to book a place for this particular session, sorry about that.

    Befriending Networks is hosting a roadshow in Edinburgh where you can be part of a peer-learning, inspiring, and solution-packed gathering for everyone involved in befriending. 

    Expect powerful conversations, real-world examples and solutions, and the kind of supportive networking that people rave about. 

    The event will be co-hosted by one of Befriending Networks' members to ensure clear working examples are available alongside their guidance on good practice in befriending. 

    In 2026, our Roadshow dives into three essential topics shaping befriending services right now through three topic questions:  

    1. How do they recruit and retain volunteers?
    2. How can they improve referrals?
    3. How do they protect wellbeing?

    Who is this event for?

    These events are free for all. Whether you are brand new or deeply experienced, you’ll leave the event with:

    • Fresh ideas from peers facing the same challenges
    • Examples of good practice you can implement
    • Five top tips from our team for each discussion theme
    • New connections that strengthen your work and your confidence

    Costs 

    Roadshow events are free to both members and non-members of Befriending Networks.
