💚 Did you know?

When you think of Castle Furniture Project, you probably think of affordable furniture and helping people furnish their homes, but that's not all we do!

We also provide a Befriending Service across North East Fife, supporting people who may be experiencing loneliness or social isolation.

Sometimes, all it takes is a friendly chat, a cup of tea, or someone to spend time with to make a real difference. Our wonderful volunteer befrienders help people reconnect with their communities, build confidence, and know they're not alone.

Because at Castle, we're not just here to furnish homes, we're here to support people too. 💜

If you'd like to find out more about our Befriending Service, or are interested in becoming a volunteer, we'd love to hear from you.
