Speaker: Jeff Tucker, Best Mates
Club members please log in for more information.
Jeff Tucker, founder of Best Mates:
"Having all been through tough times, it was apparent that seeking help with ease from readily available services was not as easy as it sounds. It takes courage, confidence, and knowhow to take those steps and that is of course if you know where to turn.
So that is where we come in.
We continually recruit volunteers that we call “Mates” these are people who have ALL been through their own unique situations, people who have managed to navigate and seek the help they have needed to get their lives back on track.
When you reach out to us and tell us what you are going through we will then match you up with one of our “Mates” who will make contact and spend time to meet up or talk over the phone to allow a non-judgemental conversation, but full of understanding and information of what they did to pull themselves out of their situation.
They will be there to guide and support you and help to change your life for the better."
