Kaleidoscope Community Befrienders are local people who work on a voluntary basis to promote the health and wellbeing of local people and help them access local services. Some are bilingual and all reflect the diversity of the local population. Community Befrienders behave in a professional manner; both as representatives of KPG and in abiding by the policies and procedures of the charity. We believe better connected communities are stronger, healthier, and more resilient communities. People who are well connected in good networks of social relationships live longer, healthier, and happier lives.
At The Kaleidoscope Plus Group, our goal is to champion mental health and wellbeing, driving real change and providing crucial mental health support services to the community, wherever they are needed.
Established in 1973 in Sandwell, we have almost five decades of experience in providing mental health support to thousands of people across the UK. Our dedicated staff are constantly striving to support those who need our help with a range of mental health services.
We are #TeamKPG, and our aim is to create a brighter future for everyone, together.
