VOLUNTEERS are needed to support people with severe mental health problems.
The charity Rethink needs befrienders to act as companions to people who may be feeling isolated and lonely as a result of their mental ill health.
Volunteers are provided with ongoing training and travel expenses.
Anyone interested is asked to call Basildon, Billericay and Wickford Volunteer Centre on 01268 294797.
