Built in Glasgow,for the peoplewho built it.

Brightside began with a simple observation: some older people in Glasgow don't qualify for council support, sit for months on charity waiting lists, or simply want something more personal — a familiar face who comes because they enjoy the company, not because a rota says so.

We're not a care agency. We don't do personal or nursing care. What we do is the bit that often matters most to families — conversation, outings, errands shared together, and a regular friendly voice on the phone. For families who live far away, we become the eyes, ears and warm presence in between their own visits.

Brightside Befriending Services Ltd is a private limited company registered with Companies House, working from our city-centre office on West George Street and out in the communities we serve.
