Guildford Community Angels

Directions Website

Guildford Community Angels Community Angels are volunteer befrienders who support adults of all ages in Guildford struggling with loneliness and isolation.

We give weekly one-to-one support, offering a listening, non-judgemental ear, companionship and encouragement to engage with the local community. The people we support face loneliness for many and varied reasons, and our befriending is personalised to meet their individual needs. If you have a couple of spare hours a week, we’d love to hear from you to discuss whether volunteering with Community Angels would be a good fit for you. We’ll provide all the training you need, match you carefully and appropriately with someone to befriend, and offer ongoing volunteer support and learning opportunities. If you or a loved one are struggling with loneliness and isolation, please get in touch. Our volunteers are ready to help.

Well done everyone. Amazing team effort!

With just three days to go - Thank you to all our great volunteer runners and supporters for helping us move towards our fundraising goal in the RunThrough Guildford 10k race this Sunday 18th. The race starts from the top of the High Street at 8am and finishes there over the following couple of hours.
If you're an early bird, why not come down and cheer on our 54 runners? They’ll be wearing bright orange T-shirts, so they’ll be easy to spot!

Sometimes, you don’t realise just how much of a difference you’ve made.
A few weeks ago, we were asked to help someone who had become unwell after leaving a nightclub.
Afterwards, one of the young men who had approached us thanked our volunteer and shared something unexpected β€” we had helped him several years ago when he was homeless.
We apparently had supported him to find hostel accommodation and take those first steps towards turning his life around.
He told us that our help had made a real difference to his life.
Moments like this remind us why we’re here.
A little support. A helping hand. A moment of kindness. It can change a life.
Thank you to all our amazing volunteers and supporters for making these moments possible. β€οΈπŸ˜‡πŸ™πŸ». Fresh teams out this weekend, if you need us.

Thanks to all our Angels & Chaplains who volunteer week by week, caring for people on the streets, in their homes and where they work. πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™

As a team, we aim to walk around in male and female pairs wherever possible. This gives the people we meet the opportunity to speak with whichever team member they feel most comfortable with, especially if they're feeling vulnerable or upset.
From time to time, people enjoying a night out will approach us because they're feeling threatened or uncomfortable due to the behaviour of someone they don't know. In those moments, we're there to listen, offer reassurance, and help them stay safe. Whether that means helping them reconnect with friends, arranging safe transport, or simply staying with them until they feel secure, our priority is making sure everyone has a safe way home. πŸ˜‡β€οΈ

We've partnered with event organiser RunThrough to offer 40 free race places, with a fundraising target of Β£250 per runner. Several of our Angels will be taking part, and we'd love for some of our followers, supporters, friends and family to join us on the start line too!

Great to hear such stories from the streets of Guildford.

A lovely moment from last Saturday night. ❀️
We were stopped on the streets by a young man who wanted to thank our team for helping him on a previous night out when he became unwell. A space blanket, wipes, some TLC, and help getting home safely made a real difference.
It's always encouraging to hear how our volunteers are making a difference to our community, week after week. πŸ™πŸ»πŸ˜‡
We'll be out again this weekendβ€”say hello if you see us!
