Our 40+ wonderful volunteers
Our Charity simply could not operate without the hard work and
dedication of our volunteer’s. We are proud have the largest group of active volunteer’s on the Fylde Coast helping us to change the lives of our amazing local community every single day.
Our Impact
Just Good Friends in the community
The charity was established back in September 2012 by
our brilliant Founder and CEO Beverley Sykes after she
saw first hand the devastating effects that being lonely and
feeling isolated can do to people’s mental health and
general wellbeing.
We have grown steadily over the years under Bev’s
leadership to over 250 members, holding between 1-2
meetings and events per day, 7 days a week. Last year the
charity held over 400 local events in total.
