“I'm so glad to be part of Age Connects volunteer team. I always miss my parents so much because they're not living in this country and I'm not able to visit them every year.

I felt like something was missing in my life till I came across the 'befriending scheme of Age Connects'. I joined it and felt like missing piece of my picture been found. Each of my clients was almost my mother's age. I very much enjoyed spending time with them. Love to listen their life experiences, changes in time and world through their life journey. It makes my heart so peaceful and happy. Every week, I look forward to meeting again and often think about them like they're my family. It's beautiful feeling to connect with someone by heart”.
