This is How We Helped in 202<\/strong>4<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We meet, support and help tens of thousands of people each year. In 2023 we had 151 476 encounters with people. Studies confirm that our help gets results, reduces loneliness and boosts well-being. The NPS recommendation score for our well-being services was 83+, while the NPS score for our volunteer activities was 81+.<\/p>\n\n\n <\/main>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n
