What this service does for you

The visiting service fights loneliness in older people thanks to volunteers who regularly go to their homes or care facilities. Every person receives a weekly visit from the same volunteer, who reads together with them, watches films, goes for walks, or runs small errands. For people who feel isolated after a stroke, this regular contact is a valuable help against loneliness. The service is free of charge and available in the regions of Luganese, Locarnese, and Bellinzonese. Family members can also request a visit for an isolated loved one.
