The Friendly Call Service is now taking referrals from Ballyfermot and Chapelizod. This is a free and confidential service available to all older members of our communities, living alone or otherwise.
The service offers a free phone call, 5 days a week to check all is well. The call can be used to remind clients to take medication, visit doctor etc and with a chat to one of the friendly staff, it’s the perfect way to start or end your day.
A local steering group has formed to bring this initiative to Ballyfermot and Chapelizod. To register for this service phone please phone 01 824 7342 .
